Journalist Melanie Roberts (Christa B. Allen) goes in search of Haley, but she finds an even greater mystery. One of Us also stars: Derek Smith (Euogilia), Carly Schroeder, Chasty Ballesteros and Ashley Wood. To release on DVD this December, a preview of the film's upcoming launch is hosted here. The official DVD trailer focuses on Melanie. She heads up to a remote location, while using her investigative skills to find Haley. She runs into the cult's charismatic leader and several of his followers. However, no one will reveal what happened to her friend. Monarch Home Entertainment will handle the film's latest release. It will show, on DVD, this December 12th. The film has not been rated. And, fans of...

Everyone’s family is crazy. Some may seem crazier than others, but that’s generally a byproduct of them being less self-conscious. The question we don’t ask ourselves — whether a part of the insanity or watching as an outsider — is why. Why does one member prove so gratingly obnoxious when you know he/she knows what others think? Why does another member retreat into his/her insular existence away from the sprawling chaos so that any opportunity to join the others feels like a chore? What has happened to drive this wedge that grows larger with each passing year of silence? The answer usually concerns blame. To be so close to someone when something bad happens to you both requires empathy and understanding. Guilt, however, often forces us to find fault instead.

This is why Brandon (Neal Bledsoe) dreads returning home. He never wants to endure the circus longer than necessary,...

Filmmaker Rob Bralver (best known for his editing work on “Gore Vidal: The United States of America”) turns his attentions to a different side of filmmaking with his feature narrative debut, “Espionage Tonight,” bound for a world premiere at Dances With Films next week. The film stars Sean Astin, Lynn Whitfield, Joe Hursley, Greg Davis Jr., Chasty Ballesteros, and many more.

Bralver wrote and directed the film, billed as “an inventive and sly critique of American media culture and politics,” which blends some timely issues around politics, “fake news,” the value of supposedly fact-based entertainment, and good old-fashioned espionage into a very amusing mix.

But there is some real meat here and, as Bralver explained in an official statement, some warnings, too. Said Bralver, “What used to be an intersectional space...

Last weekend, one of the movies that opened in limited release was the action-packed Vigilante Diaries, starring Paul Sloan. Even if you missed this new action-thriller in theaters, it will be available on home video starting July 5 from Anchor Bay Entertainment. To get fans ready for this release, we have an exclusive clip featuring Chasty Ballesteros, which sheds some light on the violent background of Paul Sloan's title character.

Anchor Bay Entertainment's Vigilante Diaries is a high octane action-adventure film featuring 90's movie heroes, explosive action, and international espionage. The film revolves around a team of black-ops agents turned crime-fighters, led by a brooding anti-hero, known only as "The Vigilante." Our exclusive clip features Raven (Chasty Ballesteros), who has Paul Sloan's unnamed vigilante trapped, as she gives viewers some insight into why he's so deadly.

These jam-packed missions of rescue and revenge take us from the mega-mansions...

Director: Andy Palmer. Writers: Ben Begley and Renee Dorian. Cast: Robert Englund, Jere Burns, Scottie Thompson, Matt Angel and Chasty Ballesteros. The Funhouse Massacre is an indie horror feature from director Andy Palmer (Badlands of Kain). Written by Ben Begley and Renee Dorian, this title blends a lot of blood with some comedy, on Halloween night. Serial killers haunt an amusement park. And, a family reunion, created in Hell, offers a decent climax. Meanwhile, a theme involving impersonation is appropriate for the film's Halloween setting, while The Funhouse Massacre manages to create an entertaining horror world. In the story, actor Robert Englund appears as a blood-thirsty warden. He allows a journalist to tour his psychiatric hospital. The hospital pens several serial killers in its walls. While the journalist and warden become better acquainted, six murderers escape their confines. The taxidermist (Clint Howard), the cannibal (E. E. Bell), the dentist charmer, a killing...

The Funhouse Massacre

• Directed By: Andy Palmer

Roll up, roll up, and let’s feast our putrid peepers on the new fright flick The Funhouse Massacre. Will it have the goods to slake our unending thirst for monsters and mayhem, or will it be the...

The Funhouse Massacre presents itself as just another indiscriminate indie-horror flick, but as someone who’s been fooled by many similarly crafted duds, I can assure you that this roadside slaughterhouse is a much more enjoyable beast. Writer Ben Begley, who also plays a bumbling deputy, is not only able to craft a horror flick that’s loads of hellish fun, but this colorful massacre remain consistently funny throughout – not an easy task for scary comedies these days. While Begley’s tongue-in-cheek antics become a bit overplayed in a few instances, it fares far better than most jovial copycats of the same ilk, and holds its own against modern gore-chucklers with much bigger budgets. In the vein of a much more over-the-top The Houses October Built, The Funhouse Massacre is one of 2015’s hidden horror gems despite a smaller-format rollout, loaded with guts and bursting with psycho-carnie ferocity.

When I think haunted attractions,...

Petri Entertainment announced today that they have partnered with AMC Independent to release The Funhouse Massacre for a theatrical run in the U.S. The film, directed by Andy Palmer, stars Robert Englund, Chasty Ballesteros, Jere Burns, Scottie Thompson, Clint Howard and Courtney Gains. The Funhouse Massacre, which was produced by Warner Davis, President of&#160 Petri Entertainment, will hit theaters in 15-20 U.S. markets on Friday, November 13th.

On Halloween night, a gruesome group of the United States' most notorious and colorful serial killers escape from Statesville Asylum. They descend on a giant funhouse whose theme is based on their different reigns of terror. The unsuspecting carnival goers think that the carnage created is just part of the show, that is, until they become part of the main attraction.

The only people left to stop them are a rag tag group of college kids. They are joined by a...

The Funhouse Massacre is a new film from Petri Entertainment. The film stars Chasty Ballesteros (Final Destination 5) and Robert Englund. In the film, six psychopaths escape the local asylum. And, they set their sights on an amusement park, hammer in hand. The film's first trailer shows many of the film's villains and a few timid characters. Fans of indie horror can view the trailer here. The film's fan page highlights some of the film's victims. Gerardo (Erick Chavarria), Jason (Sterling Sulieman), Christina (Ballesteros) and others do their best to survive the film. But, each has their weakness: social media addiction, a weed addled mind or hubris. Will any survive? Film fans can find out for themselves when the film releases this November. More details on the film are available below. Release Date: November 13th, 2015. Director: Andy Palmer. Writers: Ben Begley and Renee Dorian. Cast: Chasty Ballesteros, Robert Englund, Clint Howard and Scottie Thompson.

Girlhouse is three parts slasher and one part home invasion movie; and introduces us to a new horror anti-hero ‘Loverboy’. It’s the directorial debut of Trevor Matthews and a feature length script first for writer Nick Gordon. University student Kylie Atkins (played by Rose Byrne’s younger look-a-like Ali Corbin) and her financial woes lead her to taking a job working in the ‘Girlhouse’. A webcam porno website/location crossed with Big Brother’s invasive camera’s in every room – so the punters can get to know the girls for who they are and, you know, fall in love with them. Naturally, her college friend is skeptical but Kylie tells her: “I’m doing this so...

Kylie Atkins (Ali Cobrin) takes a tour of her new home, where she meets the quick-changing Kat (Alice Hunter) in our exclusive clip from Girl House. At first, it may seem like your average home, but there are over 50 cameras streaming live footage of all the girls in every room, which thousands of fans are watching at any given moment. Kylie is led through this sprawling sex mansion by Gary Preston (James Thomas), who explains that users have no way of finding out the true identities of each participant, or where they are located.

This Halloween-style slasher for the digital age follows the plight of Kylie, who, in an attempt to try and make some extra cash while she's away at college, moves into Girl House, which streams content to an X-rated website. After a deranged fan hacks in to determine the house's location, she finds herself in a terrifying fight for her life.

As we told you last week, Lightning Entertainment was bringing two new titles to the American Film Market and, today, we now have the trailers for those films.

If you've been wondering what Jack Brooks: Monsters and The Shrine's Trevor Matthews has been update to, well, he helmed Girlhouse penned by Nick Gordon. Ali Cobrin, Camren Bicondova and Chasty Ballesteros star.

Indie Spotlight Review: Nobody Can Cool

by Heather Wixson

Nobody Can Cool is the rather impressive directorial debut from up-and-coming filmmaking duo Dpyx, Marcy Boyle and Rachel Holzman, who crafted a blisteringly taut and thoughtful indie crime thriller with a palpable sense of tension from start to finish. A gritty and engaging tale of deceit, violence and desperation, Nobody Can Cool is anchored by a breakout performance by Nick Principe (best known from his work in the Laid to Rest series, Madison County and...

Evan Goldberg Talks This is the End, available now on Blu-ray and DVD

Was This Is the End the funniest movie of the summer? Definitely. Will it end up being the funniest movie of the year? It will be a close race, that's for sure. What sounded like a vanity project for some of this generation's biggest and brightest stars actually proves to be one of the most inventive, scary, and downright hysterical comedies of all time. Its this millennium's Ghostbusters, and it finds Jonah Hill, Seth Rogen, Jay Baruchel, Danny McBride, Craig Robinson and James Franco all living in a house together, trying to survive the apocalypse.

The film marks the directorial debut of writing partners Evan Goldberg and Seth Rogen, who brought us the now classic Superbad and its equally iconic follow-up Pineapple Express. We recently caught up with Evan to talk about the evolution of the film,...

Oxymoron or no, Final Destination 5 is shooting out toward you at your local theater. But is it any good? Depends on what you’re looking for. If you’re looking for the feel-good movie of the year? Well, that’s the next theater over. You want to see a gory, gruesome body count, complete with body parts flying at you in 3D, crammed into a little over an hour and a half? There has been nothing that comes close to this movie this year. Right this way for bread and circus; are you not entertained? Damn right you are.
