Raph and Max only kill bad guys. When Sam sends our heroes on a routine hit, they find themselves caught up in an alien-zombie conspiracy of epic proportions. But alien zombies are nothing compared to the wrath of Raph's wife if he doesn't make his son's birthday party. Being a good hit man is tough; being a good dad is a killer! In this buddy action comedy, zombie movie, attorney Samantha Carter (Katie Stewart) gets bad criminals released. Of course, she is extremely well paid for this, and she in turn puts that money to good use, paying hit men Raph (Al Snow) and Max (John Wells) to take out these criminals. Raph and Max may be hitmen, but first they are friends. They exchange casual banter and Max, the single one, is a welcome member of Raph's family. Unfortunately for Raph it's his son's birthday and Raph has to come up with an awesome present, a cake for the party and a clown, but only after Raph and Max kill a drug supplier.

As Raph and Max work to solve all of the birthday related problems, they also track their target to a warehouse/chemical laboratory. They enter the building not really knowing what to expect, but being attacked by zombies with nasty, infection-spreading stingers on their shoulders was definitely not it. The duo end up trapped with a group of scientists including Stephanie (Sebrina Siegel), Monica (Erica Goldsmith) and Greg (James Tackett). Greg it turns out is their target, but they can't just take him out; the chemical Greg has been adding to the drugs he is supplying is actually the cause of the zombie infestation in the lab.

So now Raph and Max have to figure out a way to stop the zombie aliens, or zaliens, from escaping the lab and spreading their infection to the entire world. The kicker is that they only have an hour to do it or they'll be late for Raph's son's party and that would be the end of his world.

Alfa Maschi Crime / Drama (Completed)

Show Reel

Like the Sopranos or an Australian Goodfellas, ALFA MASCHI is an intense, poignant look at Gallo, the college educated nephew of the psychopathic Don, Uncle Julius, as he quickly rises up to become a made man only to realize that he wants his freedom from his uncle and organized crime. This multi- layered mafia film; at times violent, hilarious, sexual, is Shakespearian in its portrayal of family tragedy.

Like Ray Liotta as Henry Hill in Goodfellas, Gallo is a bright young man on the rise, brought in to help out his Uncle Julius Calogero, the Don of the local mafia syndicate. Gallo’s meteoric rise up the crime ranks is paralleled with his best friend Ronnie’s efforts to become a professional boxer. Gallo is smart, savvy, and he uses his brains to help his Uncle Julius’ ruthless chokehold on the city. But the reality of the violence of mob life starts to change Gallo’s desire to grow in this “family.”

Gallo gets made; a made guy in the mafia he has no wish to be in. This is where the Irony spills over and the action ramps up. Gallo’s plight is as impactful as Macbeth’s from a stylish Shakespearian point. Gallo’s Uncle Julius thwarts every effort Gallo attempts to leave the mafia and lead a normal life. On the contrary, Julius perpetuates the corrupt, grimy, nihilistic atmosphere Gallo finds himself immersed in. Meanwhile the police lurk on the periphery – aiming to take down Gallo and the mob. Tobias and Anthea are the two young, affable and contentious detectives who give chase, trying to destroy this organized crime syndicate.

A cocktail of deception and death spirals toward the finale. As Gallo’s most influential friend is murdered, Gallo’s best friend Ronnie’s potential title fight must be fixed for financial-gain or they both will face certain death. The final shootout provides unlikely liberators and an opportunity for Gallo and Ronnie to find freedom and to forge their own identities. ALFA MASCHI is a mafia movie as violent as it is emotional, as sexual as it is ironic, as nihilistic as it is hopeful.

Sorceress Drama / Supernatural / Romance (Completed)

Show Reel

Sorceress has been compared to the award-winning Swedish horror film "Let the Right One In". This is a beautiful, haunting story about Nina who desperately longs for someone to share her secrets with. But will love be enough to break the dark forces of sorcery lying dormant in her family for generations?

Sorceress plays in this space between the human and the inhuman, between past and present, between the drab and the ecstatic. It's never just one or the other. Perhaps Nina is insane. Or she really is frolicking with the stars. What difference does it make?” --Daniel Coffeen, author, Reading the Way of Things

Like Scarlett Johannson’s thriller Under the Skin, Naama Kates' directorial debut, Sorceress, is edgy, hip and dangerous in its depiction of a woman on the verge of sanity. This is a modern film noir that explores the glorious, delirious, and infinite powers of the dark magic in our world that's always present. The main character Nina struggles with her sanity, not knowing if she is going insane or might truly be a sorceress with growing powers.

By A Wake Up Call, "I saw this film and it was the best film I've EVER seen! When I was 13, I was a bully but this movie made me think what it's like to be on the other side. I would actually advise this to be viewed by problem children because there is a VERY strong message that what you do to other people can affect what they feel, how they treat others and how badly it can affect their future. I always knew that what I was doing was wrong but never realized how wrong until I saw Sticks and Stones. It's great!"

5 out of 5 stars!! One of the best!! By Strawberry Sherbet, "I saw "Sticks and Stones" when it first came on TV and I still have to say that this is one of the best movies I've seen for ages. The movie is brimming with emotions, teenage angst and is bound to bring back memories if you've been bullied but it only goes to show that sometimes, the bullies are miserable people themselves and there's a reason behind their actions."

Arbor Day Comedy / Musical (Completed)

Show Reel

ARBOR DAY is a provocative, offbeat comedy about an avant- garde theatre director who tries to mount the first September 11th musical. With a cast full of truthers and others who intensely disagree with the conspiracy theorists, the play is a disaster from the first rehearsal.

Before preproduction, Director Chuck Huber met with a friend, a docent at the Pentagon, who lost her father on September 11th. She showed him her father's grave at Arlington National Cemetery. It was a moment that almost made him give up on the movie. Instead, the friend assured him that various types of stories of 9/11 had to be told, and she stated her support of ARBOR DAY, his motley musical comedy about the worst moments in our country's history.

When acclaimed theater director, Andy McDonough, returns from a European tour of his original play "Zombie Our Town," he enlists the producing help of old college friend and financier, William Rutledge, on a musical comedy about September 11th. Noted for finding talent in odd places, Andy collects a strange group of performers: Celia, a beautiful Honduran singer; Jacob, a tattooed rocker; Eric, a paranoid Jack of all trades; Jason, a former Christian rock star; Nadia, a Pakistani artist; Michele, a comedienne; Max; a strong silent Shakespearean actor.

The cast is full of opinionated actors and actresses, not only going through their own life issues but all with very strong ideas about September 11th. When some members of the cast admit that 9/11 was a government conspiracy, already thin tempers explode. Throughout the rehearsal process, relationships develop and their continuing differing views on that horrible day in September cook under the pressure of the impending initial performance of the controversial play.
