The month of September is gone. It was quite a month indeed. Dead But Dreaming<\/mark><\/strong>, our new release, doing its rounds around the world, our other films are getting noticed, like Barbazul<\/mark><\/strong> which was screened Saturday 28th at the Cinemateca<\/strong> with a Q&A and great audience response and it’s going to be at the PollyGrind Film Festival <\/strong>in Las Vegas<\/strong>; Maleficarum<\/mark><\/strong> is breaking records and keeping itself ahead on the best seller position, Martyr<\/mark><\/strong> was the subject of a conference on Semiotics at a major university and there’s going to be a workshop on the subject as well, Olalla<\/mark><\/strong> is under production and looking really good, and Sirwi\u00f1akuy<\/mark><\/strong> is the subject of discussions and new screenings at the Cinemateca<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The transformations we embarked on, in 2010, when we started the production of Barbazul<\/mark><\/strong> and Maleficarum<\/mark><\/strong> truly changed everything. The last three years have been so different for us. So full of surprising results. The featured article\/interview of Amy at Fangoria<\/strong> is one of those unexpected events as well as her participation in the CineKink<\/strong> festival in three US cities, the amazing reviews of most of our films in The Beverly Hills Outlook<\/strong>, the surprising contact made by celebrated author C Dean Andersson<\/strong> who discovered us at a convention in Texas where Maleficarum<\/mark><\/strong> was mentioned in glowing terms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We owe a lot of this to Ralphus<\/strong> who by putting his cash into the production of Maleficarum<\/mark><\/strong> gave us a huge push forward. It was inspiring, to say the least, encouraging as well, and those funds were the seeds for a new stage in our productions. Others have emulated Ralphus<\/strong>, helping finance Dead But Dreaming<\/mark><\/strong> (D. Santorum<\/strong>) and Dead But Dreaming 2 <\/mark><\/strong>(someone who will be credited in due time).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It feels good to have the kind of support that makes our films possible. It feels even better that the films are so well received.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
