On its premiere evening, "Terror in the Pharoah's Tomb" was shown three times to enthusiastic crowds. Keep a look-out for the film, coming soon to video stores and web rental and retail sites! I can't wait to show you my dungeon...

Don Dohler succumbs to cancer, passes away

With the passing of cinematographer/producer/editor Don Dohler, we recently lost one of the kindest, most decent people ever to grace the earth.

After being threatened at gunpoint by a robber in the 1970s, Don decided life was too short not to pursue his dream of making movies. Starting with the successful "Alien Factor", over the years Don brought many visions of aliens and mayhem to the screen. His example of successful independent filmmaking, along with the how-to magazines on cinema and special effects that he published, have inspired and educated a multitude of currently successful filmmakers and crew.

I met Don after he formed Timewarp Films with Joe Ripple, and I was chosen to play freaky, slasher housewife Betty Peelman.

Over the next few years, I appeared in five films made by Don. We became friends and I saw how he conducted his life, with the utmost integrity and giving spirit. He took care of his family, served his community, put in tons of time on the films and mentored young filmmakers, crew and talent. He also had boundless energy, I don't know how he did it all!

Don, I miss you like crazy. Thank you for giving me the opportunities to both perform in your films and contribute as a member of your team. Thank you for teaching me to pursue my dreams while remaining true to the most important values in life. I am glad I have your example to follow. Rest in peace, my friend.
