Enigma Films

Independent Film company based in Tampa, Florida. We specialize in the horror genre. But years later it has been released on DVD.

Born in New York and raised in Florida, Rick Danford has always wanted to be in the movies. Early on there were dreams of acting and then as time marched on he found his home behind the camera. Rick began the Indie Film Company Renegade Films along with his very talented friends Kerry Hogan and Porl DeNicolo. Together they dove into their first feature film, "The Web of Darkness" which starred Genre Legends Tom Savini and Brinke Stevens. Essentially learning their way as production rolled on the film was beset by one disaster after another. Renegade Films also produced the short films, "Blood Money", "The Pledge" (Which starred local Radio DJ Chris Fisher) and "Bloody Mary". They also ran a very successful "Saints & Sinners Film Festival" at The State Theater for 5 years. The Renegade boys eventually parted ways and Rick went on to create Enigma Films. There Rick ran "The Halloween Horror Picture Show" for 5 years and also produced a couple of shorts including the Award Winning "Alarum" and "The Reaper" which was an Official Selection of "The New York City Horror Film Festival". Most recently Rick has produced another short called, "The Thing Under The Bed" and is actively working with Tom Savini to raise funds to produce a zombie film they've co-written called "Tom Savini's Death Island" that Savini himself is set to direct. Rick is also working with Brinke Stevens, Steven Shea, Jeff Strand and Andy Lalino on an anthology horror film called, "All Hallows Eve".

Indie Horror Ju**ie (Indie Horror Ju**ie) is proud to announce the cast of its upcoming project, THE CLOCK HELLS BELLS, a supernatural horror short film and sequel to THE CLOCK.

The film is written, directed and produced by Indie Horror Ju**ie’s Rick Danford (Rick Danford) and Aimee Rolfsen (Aimee Rolfsen).

Legendary scream queen Brinke Stevens (Brinke Stevens) stars as Irma Toombs, the caretaker of a secluded bed and breakfast that is home to a mysterious grandfather clock.

Joining her are rising horror actresses Celeste Blandon (CELESTE BLANDON 🎥) as Bethany and Kendall Krueger (Kendall🐝✨) as Madori, podcasting sisters known to their listeners as The Synsters. Their investigation into the clock’s sinister history soon reveals a deeply personal connection and places them at the center of something far more dangerous than they ever imagined.

Filming begins this September at the historic May-Stringer House (Historic May-Stringer Museum - OFFICIAL INSTAGRAM OF GHOSTFEST) in Brooksville, Florida, widely known as one of the state’s most haunted locations.

THE CLOCK HELLS BELLS will make its world premiere on Halloween Day, October 31, 2026, as part of the Halloween Horror Picture Show. Following its premiere and select film festival run, the short film will ultimately become part of REELS OF THE DEAD, Indie Horror Ju**ie’s upcoming original horror anthology.
