  • In “The Monster Project”, aspiring horror filmmakers post an online casting call looking for “real life” monsters to interview for their upcoming documentary called The Monster Project. They find three individuals claiming to be a skin walker, a vampire, and a demon. Meeting these monsters at a remote mansion in the woods on the night of a total lunar eclipse, the filmmakers invite the three subjects to share their haunting, personal experiences. Working on the crew is a recovering drug addict who suffers withdrawal and paranoia. As a person of faith, he fears his friends underestimate the dark powers they are summoning. When the interviews turn deadly, he must battle the demons, inside and out, to escape the house and defeat the rise of evil incarnate.

On the run, a businesswoman and a nurse seek shelter in a Shinto shrine where they meet up with a housewife and a schoolgirl. With few options, the brave women decide to stop running and take a stand against the growing, ghoulish, global threat. They arm themselves with assault rifles and explosives and prepare themselves for the final showdown to confront the monsters and destroy them to save what is left of humanity!

  • SYNOPSIS: Popular scream queen Tyler Phenix had it all -a successful career, money, a loving boyfriend… and plenty of adoring fans! Her direct-to-video features were guaranteed hits each time out. And her exposure was extending well beyond the b-movie circuit – she was starting to raise the eyebrows of some of the major players in Hollywood as well. And then comes what should have been the greatest day of her life — a proposal of marriage, and an offer to work with a critically renowned director. So why does she turn both offers down? Well, Tyler’s greatest fan is asking the same thing. He wants her to be a big star… He wants all the world to love her like he does… In his eyes, she is making all the wrong decisions. And unfortunately for Tyler, he might know exactly why she is doing just that… Zombies and monsters from her movies, as well as the demons from her personal past, take physical form before her as she confronts the path her life has taken in a horrific psychological battle of the wills with her captor.
