Jack Berner is the definition of an actor’s actor. On Apex he was at the gym before 12-hour days, script open, drilling a page-long monologue until he could pick it up word for word from anywhere. Always prepared, always game for new ideas. Total pro. Also, Elizabeth’s alright too.

King Jeff is the real deal. Nuanced performance, super prepared, legit charisma, and maybe the lowest-maintenance actor I’ve ever worked with. I’ve lived with Stan in my head for years, and in The Apex Predators Club Jeff delivered him fully.

Check out the official trailer for our upcoming sci-fi horror movie Alien Storm from Mahal Empire Productions, written/directed by Adam Werth and shot by Michael Su! #mahalempire #michaelmahal #adamwerth #michaelsu #scifi #horrormovies #comingsoon www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LXs...

Now watching Toxic Avenger. I remember hanging out with Lloyd Kaufman and my brother way back in the day and Lloyd saying he was going to get a hollywood version of the Toxic Avenger made someday and he did it so congrats uncle Lloyd! It's a proud moment to be a part of the Troma family.

Just over 2 weeks til The Apex Predators Club shoots. Every film I make, fear hits hard at the end. Not weakness. Proof it matters. You carry it and move anyway. That’s courage.

Having Felissa Rose in your indie film is like having a secret weapon. Horror fans see her face and stop scrolling. Of course the movie still has to be good… but Felissa makes sure they give it a shot. #IndieFilmLife #FelissaRose #AHardPlaceMovie

I can’t stress this enough… in the streaming era, your poster art is king. It’s more important than your trailer. It’s the first thing people see, the thing that makes them click. If it’s bad, they scroll. If it’s good, they watch. Simple as that.

“There’s a monster among you.” Not a metaphor. Not a vibe. An actual monster. In a bar. This is CRAVING. Bloody chaos, bad decisions, and one hell of a night. #CravingMovie #IndieHorror #WhatTheHellIsThat

Filmmaking is hard. For everyone. Struggling doesn’t mean you’re weak. It means you’re in it. That’s not failure. That’s strength. #indiefilmtruth #keepcreating #realtalkfilmmaker

this new season of Dexter started out a bit clunky, but is shaping up to be as good if not better than some of the show's peak stuff.

Hot take but maybe we should care about things even when they don’t affect us directly. Other people’s pain still matters. You don’t need to wait until it hits you to give a damn. Empathy. Pass it on.

Felissa Rose about to bring the heat on the set of A Hard Place. She’s a force. This one was wild to shoot—and somehow she made it look easy. Now streaming on Amazon and Tubi. #FelissaRose #AHardPlaceMovie #IndieHorror
