Quite a Conundrum

QAC One Sheet Small 202x300 Quite a ConundrumIt should have been just a normal day of sex, fun, alcohol, hormones and debauchery for Tabitha and Mimi, two twenty something’s who care about nothing but themselves and what chaos they can cause.

But that so-called normalcy gets tossed out the window when an unexpected and devastating event occurs at a nighttime pool party. As the alcohol begins to wear off and the body count rises, all hell breaks loose and there is no going back.

If the foul mouths, perverted attitudes and devious natures of Tabitha and Mimi were not enough to get you going, then just throw in Tabitha’s walking porno of a boyfriend Sean and his new best friend, the sweet Dutch. Oh yeah, then mix in Mimi’s eighteen year old virginal, confused and prudish sister Kylene and her boner prone, sexually challenged boyfriend Harris, and the events gets even saucier.

If that’s not spicy enough for your tongue, then shoot in a splash of the old pervert Marc and his crazy unhinged wife Lola, and then toss in the Bible belt thumping Jesus Freak Thelma, and it gets a little more than crazy, dangerous, insane and scary, in fact it’s chaotic debauchery personified.

You’ll want to avert your eyes and ears away at every possible turn, but that sadistic, dark and devious part, way down, deep inside of you, will not allow you to look away.

The Castle Project

 The Castle Project“Is this place really haunted?”

This seems to be the question that architect/filmmaker Brian Higgins gets asked every day on the steps of his new hotel renovation project.

He won’t tell you about it…he’ll show you.

The Historic Croke Patterson Mansion is located on Capitol Hill in Denver, Colorado. Since its birth in 1891, the house has a rich history of high profile owners, tragic events, and viral folklore.

There have been numerous deaths in the house over the years including a documented suicide and many believe it to be haunted and one of the best locations in the U.S. to have paranormal encounters. The daunting exterior has propagated folklore with stories about a satanic caretaker, a buried baby, and spirits that keep the building from being inhabited.

As Brian and his team tackle the intimidating task of renovating the outdated mansion into a Bed and Breakfast Hotel, the workers begin to report supernatural occurrences, from sightings of apparitions, whispering voices and peculiar odors. When some members of the team start to fall ill, and an unexplained fire threatens the projects completion, Brian begins to question the true nature of the Castle and the meaning behind these strange events.

Nur and her new friend Erhan are young children in an orphanage. One day Erhan the mute gets into trouble because of Nur and takes the blame for her, which leaves her feeling guilty. Tahir, the head of the orphanage wants to teach the kids a lesson and gives Erhan a goat to look after, which will be slaughtered later to feed the kids.

Nur manages to lose the goat as well and panics, because she doesn’t want her friend to get into trouble for her again. She sets off on an adventurous journey to find and return the goat, but comes back empty handed, yet having learned the importance of honesty and responsibility. Just as she confesses to the head of the orphanage, it turns out that Erhan had actually found and been looking after the goat. Erhan thanks and forgives her. Nur is redeemed.
