Dinner With The Dwyers is a horror comedy short plays like a pilot to an edgy sitcom that balances a bit of pitch-black humor with horror thrown into the mix.
Directed by Edward Payson and featuring an enthusiastic cast, among them Sleepaway Camp’s Felissa Rose, the short film gleefully toys with the conventions of both the sitcom and the horror film as it tells a quick tale about a daughter (played by Tiffani Fest) who brings home her new boyfriend (Jared Michael Degado) to meet her parents (Marv Blauvelt & Felissa Rose).
The short film is an odd delight, as it toys with sitcom and horror film conventions along the way. The laugh track, sound effects and comedy lets you know the film in no way takes itself seriously and invites you along to have a few laughs.
I appreciated its tone and sense...

Joey Kovar, a former Real World Hollywood and Celebrity Rehab cast member, was found dead in Chicago Friday morning, police confirm to E! News. Friend and coworker Jared Degado tells E! News exclusively he suspects Kovar died of a prescription drug overdose. "He would have horrible panic attacks to the point of where he thought he was having heart attacks," says Degado. "He was prescribed anti-anxiety meds, but he would take so many, he didn't like the way it made him feel. So he would take Adderall to bring himself back up." "I have a feeling his body being pulled in two different directions just overloaded his heart," adds Degado, the president of Muscle Wolf Productions, which...

We see all kinds of movie trailers around here. Psychological thrillers, over-the-top slashers, campy horror-comedies, you name it. And every so often we get one that gets under our skin...that trailer that feels real. Such is the case with the teaser for Inhumane. You feel like you're looking right into the brutal crimes of Corbin Hobbs, and we've got to admit it's more than a little off-putting.
No, this trailer is not the most slickly shot piece of filmmaking ever produced, but that adds to its strength. Gritty does not begin to describe it. Dirty might be a better word.
Short film Inhumane is scheduled to be the first project produced by Black Eye Entertainment in 2012. It's written and directed by K.M. Jamison and stars Marv Blauvelt, Heather Dorff and Kelsey Zukowski with special appearances by Jared Degado and Edward Moore. Go ahead and take a look for yourself.
