Monsters of Man
Director: Mark Toia
A robotic company teams up with a corrupt CIA agent undergoing an illegal, unsanctioned military operation. Dropping four prototype robots into a suspected drug manufacturing camp in the Golden triangle that no one will miss. The mission is to prove the robotics company is worthy of winning a lucrative military contract. Six doctors on a good cause witness the brutal slaughter of an innocent village and are forced into a deadly game of cat and mouse as they become the new targets. Picture of two hours of galaxy B-action and robot rumble in the jungle!
Bad Girls
Director: Christopher Bickel
Micromicrobudget feature. After robbing a strip club, three desperate teenage girls lead a misogynistic Federal Agent on a lysergic cross-country chase, scoring a duffle bag full of money, drugs, and a crew of willing kidnapees (the girls’s favorite bands CHRISTMAS TITS and POLTERGASM) along the way. Director Bickel is known for THETA GIRL, our 2017 opening film.
The Death Ones
Director: Jeremy Kasten
Summer break is almost over. Four youngsters are punished by having to clean the school and can only leave when everything is spick-and-span. At first sight it looks like the school was left by a very enthused group of students, but soon they realize a horrible event has taken place. While trying to unravel the mysterious havoc, they are chased by four marauding, masked people. These four Gas Masks seem like the Four Horseman of the Apocalypse, as they represent Famine, Pestilence, War, and finally Death. They set traps and hunt the young students down. While the youngsters are fighting to survive, they discover that they’re more involved with the ravaged school than they first thought.
The Old Man
