Earthling extended description (play trailer) 

Synopsis:
On an orbital space platform, a three-man crew picks up a strange object. It appears to be a living seed of some sort. When the seed is touched, a strange pulse rings out, causing a global brown-out on Earth.

To most, the brown-out is merely a momentary nuisance. However, JUDITH and a small group of strangers are drastically affected. They slowly realize they are perhaps not what they seem and begin to feel they are actually members of a stranded alien race, living on Earth disguised as humans. They band together to seek out the secret of the seed that may present a way back home.

Magus Just One Can Threaten Their Secret World extended description play trailer

Synopsis:
Felix, a broken-down healer, learns the Magus has abandoned the Wizard’s Code and is using his power for evil. Forced to come out of reclusion, this improbable hero finds an improbable assistant -- his teenage niece. Together, they train for his inevitable duel.

"The latest film by new horror master John Lechago is fortunately one of the better movies to come around in this complicated genre. There are a lot of fantasy based horror flicks around flooding the genre film festivals and DVD releases. It is rare that one comes along with enough dedication and talent to actually be interesting. It is reassuring that some film makers are still trying to extend their mastery of the art of cinema instead of cashing in for a quick buck or two." Home Theater Info DVD Review

 


Spike extended description (play trailer) 

Synopsis:
Spike is the monstrously mutated suitor who builds a forest lair in which he dwells for several years while awaiting the arrival of his “beauty” - a girl with whom he shares a history, and whom he has idolized his entire life.
The girl and a group of friends find themselves, by no coincidence, stranded in Spike’s forest. The Beast kidnaps his Beauty. Spike also injures her boyfriend and holds him hostage. Thus begins the girl’s quest to recover her ill-fated lover from Spike -- whether through reason, charm, coercion, or violence -- while her friends try to recover her.
Spike maneuvers through the dark tensions of a monster’s love and the depths to which a beauty may sink to evade it, arguably becoming monstrous herself. In the end, we must uncomfortably agree that, as Spike himself says, “There is always some madness in love.” Spike gives that madness life.

"Impressive, uniquely engaging gothic fairytale with unexpected turns." - Sean Decker, FANGORIA

"An assured and stylish mix of David Lynch and the brothers Grimm." - Callum Waddell, DREAMWATCH/TOTAL SCI-FI
