COMING LATER THIS YEAR...TRANSYLVANIA TAPES.

Teaser poster designed by Tony Goggles.

"In 1997, Romanian actress Silvia Enescu mysteriously disappeared while searching for family property in Transylvania. All she left behind were a collection of home movies: the TRANSYLVANIA TAPES. Now, Silvia's daughter Mara travels from Los Angeles to Romania to discover what happened to her mother. With the help of her cameraman friend Dylan, Mara documents her journey, which takes her from the streets of Bucharest to the medieval town of Sighisoara, deep in the heart of Transylvania. Unearthing the truth about her mother comes at a terrible price, as Mara must escape an ancient family curse."

TBT: PLAGUERS was first released on DVD by Image Entertainment in December 2009, right before the holidays. This would be the last time I saw physical copies of my movies on the shelves of a major chain, as Hollywood Video and Blockbuster (seen here) would soon disappear. Image made a lot of mistakes in marketing and distributing the movie. We were much happier with the Wild Eye Blu-ray in 2019.

TBT: In 2019, Josephina and I did a round of interviews with Film Courage as part of the promotion for Hi-Death. It was a full day, with no prep, so some of my answers were pretty off the cuff.

The interviews are still up on YouTube, and we've gotten some nice feedback from people who've found them helpful. I added links to the full interviews in the comments.

Amazing to think around this time last year, Josephina and I were writing the script for TRANSYLVANIA TAPES. And now, the movie is in the final stages of editing.

Since tomorrow is Thanksgiving, this is the perfect time to say a big THANK YOU to everyone who helped bring TRANSYLVANIA TAPES to life, from our talented cast to our awesome post production wizards to our loyal backers. We couldn't have done it without you!

The workplace of our friend and artistic collaborator Tony Goggles caught fire Monday night. Read his statement below for more info and a Gofundme page:

As some of you may know, the offices at Exit 7A Creative Services & Studios caught fire on Monday night. I’m still processing everything, but I wanted to share a few thoughts.

This building isn’t just a place I work. It’s where 98% of the art you’ve ever seen from me was created. The barn where we’ve filmed so many of our videos and movies… the office where all those raw images get shaped into the D.I.Why? Films you love… every flyer, album cover, t-shirt design, and wild idea I’ve put into the world — all of it was born within these walls.

And it’s not just the space. It’s Scott Miller Scott has been there for me since the very beginning of my professional career. Back when I didn’t know bunk about bunk, he let hone my skills that shaped the artist you know today. He gave me room to grow, let me crash at the office whenever I needed to, and believed in me long before I understood how much that mattered. This wasn’t just a workplace — it was a second home (and if you ask Amanda Stauss-Catanese, probably my first). And Scott isn’t just my boss; he’s a true friend who’s gotten me out of more jams than I could ever list here.

Exit 7A has been a lifeline for countless Trenton artists, musicians, and filmmakers. Without Scott and this space, a lot of the work you love — not just mine — simply wouldn’t exist.

If you have a moment, please take a look at the GoFundMe, donate if you can, or even just share it. Every bit helps.

Five years before I used it in CAMP BLOOD, the iconic "clown" mask made its first appearance in my action/drama VIOLENT STREETS.

VIOLENT STREETS will have its Philadelphia premiere at PhilaMOCA on Monday, November 17, hosted by filmmaker Brewce Longo. Co-producer/post supervisor Tony Goggles will speak before the film and I'm doing a Zoom Q+A after the movie.
