DISCONNECTED
This was the first film. We shot this in 16mm. I was involved in all aspects from fundraising to acting. It was an awesome learning experience and we were so proud when we sold it to a video distribution company. Although the sale was small (we received $8 from Thailand for the distribution rights), it was the catalyst that began my stint in movies!
PSYCHOS IN LOVE
My first starring role. (I was also Associate Producer and co-writer, wrote and performed the score and lent a hand with the special effects.) This film is a world-wide cult hit and has just gained more fans from a recently restored re-release on DVD in the USA, a special edition in Germany and is now hitting new eyes in Denmark, Scandinavia, Belgium and the Faroe Islands.
The title inspired a band name and the movie was reworked for the stage in a summerlong production in Madison, Wisconsin of "Psychos In Love: The Play".
Loved by die-hard horror fans and non-horror fans, PIL continues to be a favorite of many critics and is gaining new fans all the time.

GALACTIC GIGOLO
Our first film in 35mm, this movie did gain a few fans and played in theatres nationwide. Not having enough creative control can make or break a film. This one broke a little - but elated that there is a pretty sizable fanbase!
CEMETERY HIGH
Our last film in 35mm. One of the worst but it got us into PEOPLE MAGAZINE. We shot this twice. They should have released the first version. Originally called "Assault of the Killer Bimbos", but was recycled. (Co-wrote 1st version. Had small role.)
As Actor only:
I SPILL YOUR GUTS 2012
Available now.
Also stars Debbie Rochon, Lloyd Kaufman, Andrew W.K. and Lynn Lowry and directed by James Balsamo (Hack Job).

"COOL AS HELL" - another James Balsamo film - available now!
This one is very special to me (well, one scene, anyway) because I got to play opposite one of my favorite actresses of all time: my daughter, Annie! It's a very funny scene with her and James. I get to play a gypsy and she gets to play my daughter. Perfect casting!
Some amusing moments. And you get to see Tom Savini and James Naughton, Andrew WK and some other fun cameos!!!
Richard Griffin's "THE SINS OF DRACULA"!
This is probably going to be an extremely fun movie to watch. We started filming last October but we'll wrap it this October, hopefully.
I get to play a vampire hunter. Pretty cool. Starring the best of the best ensemble actors from Rhode Island (including the talented Michael Thurber in our second film together) and directed by award-winner Richard Marr-Griffin from a script by the amazingly talented writer, Michael Varrati.
Keep an eye or two out for this one.
