Released January 2018, J.D. Oliva returns to talk about his Halloween Story.
Cody Burk’s family was looking for a fresh start after the death of his father. To simplify things, the family sold the Haunted Hallow, the town’s famous commercial haunted house to a new-comer called Roscoe Slater and his family. Unfortunately, things didn’t get better.
Connor Burk and his group of friends have bullied Cody for the last time. Cody and his friends have built the perfect plan to embarrass his brother in front of the entire town of Hawk Hallow on Halloween. When their plan goes awry, Cody retreats to the one place he knows better than anyone, the Haunted Hallow. But he didn’t count on the new owners being a brood of real monsters.
Can Cody and his friends survive the Slater’s murderous modifications to the haunted house or will they fall to the demonic clan?
If you like Stranger Things, you’ll love this terrifying Halloween tale!

When a couple of college kids decide to go on a hunting trip for their Christmas break, they get more than they bargained for when their past comes back to haunt them. An undead reindeer has set Mr. and Mrs. Claus on a murderous rampage of revenge- with the entire group as the target.
As the group struggles to stay alive and figure out what put them on Santa's Murder List, feelings run high and love triangles are revealed. However, it will take more than love and Christmas cheer to stop the killing. During a fight for survival, the question remains- who killed Rudolph?
The Christmas Slasher, which has been approved as a sag feature film project, brings a horror twist to classic characters including Santa Claus, Rudolph, and Mrs. Claus while also adding a psychological element into the mix. The main character, Alita Claus, becomes not only the sole witness but also a murder suspect and the audience are left questioning exactly how much of what they see is real.

Since 2012 we’ve been making independent horror films with the help of our supporters. In our early days it was a friend volunteering for a speaking role, a cinematographer who shot for the passion, not the pay, or a young make-up artist just trying to get some practice working on a film. We always relied on the combined efforts of the few to help us deliver our brand of entertainment to the many.
Over the years we’ve matured as a production company. With a strong focus on storytelling, acting, locations, and practical effects, our experiences have helped us improve our production value, expand our fan base and audience, and secure distribution deals that ultimately deliver us more exposure. We’ve built a brand that independent film fans can believe in and rely on.
Today, we’re asking you to believe in our next project.
Back in May of 2017 we launched the ambitious production of a four-film anthology titled “The Theatre of Terror”.
We successfully raised a $10k budget thanks to people like you. Less than 2 years later, “The Theatre of Terror” had its premiere in January of 2019 and we were floored at the reception it received. Our audience loved the diversity in our subject matter and the classic feel of the anthologies of old we were able to capture.
This reaction energized and inspired us. Enough in fact, to send us back into the bowels of hell of indie film making! Therefore, we are announcing our follow up anthology, “Return to The Theatre of Terror”. We’ve written and developed four new, compelling, and cryptic tales to send shivers down your spine.

Chicago. Retired detective Jack Shane is determined to prove he’s still got what it takes. Five years after his faceoff with the fierce Pentagram Killer, the grizzled cop is brought in to hunt a copycat perp who carves their victim’s hands with bloody stars. But he’s plagued with PTSD and strange hallucinations when he digs deep and discovers that the murderer is a crazed werewolf.
Desperate to solve the crimes before a hired assassin executes the vicious culprit, Jack’s unsettling visions drive him into a spiral of torment. But when the lead investigator is fatally torn to shreds, Jack keeps a single silver bullet loaded in the chamber… because his estranged son is the predator’s next target.
Can he return from retirement as a success, or will this ill-omened case be his death?
Harvest Moon is the suspenseful prequel to The Books of Jericho series of supernatural thrillers. If you like gritty mysteries, stunning twists and turns, and horrifying monsters, then you’ll love this after-dark probe.
