Chatter: Press Release: ""Chatter", the heart-pounding Skype horror-thriller, just added one more festival acceptance to its distinguished list. First, winning "Best Experimental Feature" at LA Thriller Film Festival, then West Hollywood Innovative, followed by a "Best Film Award" nomination by Shriekfest and most recently, an Official Selection of RIP Horror. "We are beyond excited," says first-time feature writer/director Matthew Solomon of his cast and crew. "We all came together, on a small budget, to make this as an experiment...a movie shot using Skype that takes place on Skype...and here we are playing big festivals and winning awards!"
"Chatter" is based on Solomon's 2011 short film "Anna"--the actual first Skype-Horror movie."With 'Anna', I had all these actor friends I was connected to all over the world," says Solomon. "We really respected each other and wanted to work together, but we were separated by an ocean. And then I had the idea to make a movie via Skype."
From that, "Anna" was born and quickly attracted the attention of producer Stefan Jacobs. He, along with filmmaker Aaron Harvey, saw "Chatter's" potential, pooled their resources to get the movie made and added an even more current twist to the story-- Internet Surveillance courtesy of the NSA and Department of Homeland Security."
"In developing the feature 'Chatter' from a 9 minute short, we saw an opportunity to add an extra dimension," Solomon adds, "the funny thing is, we wrote that in before all the Edward Snowden/WikiLeaks stuff came to light. And now with all of that, it just makes the whole experience that much more voyeuristic and creepy."
"Chatter" follows Agent Martin Takagi (Tohoru Masamune of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles) who is monitoring video chats for the Department of Homeland Security. He comes across the intimate conversations of David and Laura Cole (played by Brady Smith and Sarena Khan) who are temporarily living in different parts of the world. Over the course of the next few days, they begin to discover that the home David is living in is haunted, and the ghost, a little girl named Anna, can now use the internet to reach everyone they come in contact with.
"Chatter" also stars Battlestar Galactica's Richard Hatch, Attack of the Show's Alison Haislip and Pete Capella, whose "Sh*t Actors Think But Don't Say" made the front page of Funny Or Die.
"Chatter" will be at RIP Horror Film Fest on Wednesday, October 21st at 9:00pm at the Echo Park Film Center in Los Angeles, CA - www.RIPHorrorFilmFest.com

The Sluagh: Press Release: "In horror, like many film genres it’s very rare that a fresh concept can come along and really make shockwaves. However, a group of young, ambitious actors and filmmakers are doing just that with their new film “The Sluagh”. “The Sluagh” may be a funny new word you’ve never heard before, but it’s a terrifying folklore that has been shared in Irish and Scottish culture for generations.
The team behind “The Sluagh” is comprised of Actor Shane Hartline (Rock of Ages, Graceland), Ben Kaplan (Slasher, ADDicted), Malia Miglino (Macabre Mondays) and Jeremiah Burton (UCB, Second City, Groundlings). "The Sluagh" has been in pre-production since March 2015 with principal photography to begin early 2016.
"The Sluagh" is a found footage horror film in which Emily Wolf, the producer of a travel show documenting historic haunted locations around the country, takes her show to a rural part of Florida to document alleged sacrificial trees. As the group sets out on their journey they realize these trees aren't the only thing haunted on the land.
The crew launched an IndieGoGo to fund this film on October 1st and are offering some awesome perks, from becoming a producer to helping write a death in the film! By donating to the production of this film, you become a part of this film’s success! Help bring “The Sluagh” to life!

Tamika hails from North Beach, Maryland, a tiny town inches from the Chesapeake Bay.She knew she wanted to be an actor after reciting a soliloquy by Sojourner Truth in front of her entire fifth grade class. Since then, she's appeared in over 20 film and television projects. In addition to acting, Tamika is the Indie Spotlight manager for Daily Dead, where she brings readers news on independent horror projects every weekend.
The first horror film Tamika watched was Child's Play. Being eight years old at the time, she remembers being so scared when Chucky came to life that she projectile vomited. It's tough for her to choose only one movie as her favorite horror film, so she picked two: Nosferatu and The Stepford Wives (1975).
