2002 The Sky Is Falling
This tense indie thriller explores paranoia and survival when a group of friends faces a series of strange, catastrophic events that may signal the end of the world. As fear and suspicion grow, loyalties are tested and hidden truths come to light, leaving everyone to question what’s real and who can be trusted. Atmospheric and unsettling, The Sky Is Falling is a gripping story of human frailty in the face of the unknown.
1990 Abraxas, Guardian of...
Part space opera, part action thriller, Abraxas, Guardian of the Universe pits galactic enforcers against each other in a fight for Earth’s future. Abraxas (Jesse Ventura) is a seasoned interplanetary cop tasked with stopping Secundus (Sven-Ole Thorsen), his former partner turned outlaw who seeks to harness a half-human child’s latent powers to conquer the universe. On Earth, Abraxas must balance his mission with protecting the boy’s mother, leading to explosive clashes and over-the-top sci-fi spectacle. Directed by Damian Lee, the film mixes low-budget charm, cosmic showdowns, and Ventura’s unique screen presence into a cult gem of 1990s video-store nostalgia.
1959 The Giant Gila Monst...
A small town in Texas finds itself under attack from a hungry, fifty-foot-long gila monster. Only Chase Winstead, a quick-thinking mechanic, can save the town from being wiped out.
