Renovation Thriller Creeps to First Theaters! The 1st Yuma, Arizona feature film collaboration between Rampart Entertainment, Paisaen Productions and Collective Development Inc. had a “work in progress” theatrical test showing in October 2010. A great crowd gathered to watch this suspenseful thriller with a soliddose of scare and gore. The film follows an Ex-Con played by a new genre favorite Anthony Hornus (“Blood Ties”, upcoming “Locked in a Room”) as he's released from prison and goes in search of stolen money from a bank heist many years earlier. The money seems to be hidden in the now empty Hotel Del Sol recently purchased by a group of renovators led by Allen Liarsby played by another genre favorite DJ Perry (“The 8th Plague”, “Gps”). The film also features screen vets Lana Wood ("Book of Ruth, Journey of Faith"), Johnny Dark ("Resurrection”), Fred Griffith ("Dean Teaster's Ghost Town") and Terence Knox ("Tour of Duty") in roles.

DJ Perry is one busy guy for sure! Not only does the guy act but he takes care of business and produces and writes as well. His IMDb reads like a book. Perry has many recognizable projects under his belt with some cool ones in the works, including an upcoming 3D offering. We cover most of the bases here. check out my latest "Versus" with my new best pal and hopefully somebody who could possibly cast me in my next cool project, DJ Perry.

Ernie Hudson (Ghostbusters), seen left, has announced his participation in the Collective Development feature A State of Hate. From the press release the film is "inspired by true events" (Collective) and this reviewer hopes that writer Anthony Hornus can back up this claim. Based on true events is a title that gets slapped on a lot of horror films. Meanwhile, the film has also cast DJ Perry (An Ordinary Killer), Renee O'Connor (Xena: The Warrior Princess), Terence Knox (Tour of Duty), Tony Becker (Dean Teaster's Ghost Town), Renee Geerlings (Halloween II), and actor-comedian Johnny Dark. Shooting takes place within the state of Michigan and the film is a period piece that takes place in 1976. A "racial divide" and "simmering racial" tensions are sparked with the death of a "young black woman," (Collective) while white detective Lynn Kendall investigates. This action thriller will move into production once casting is complete, with more details inside.
