This is one amazing, funny and detailed review of Amy Hesketh's Olalla, the film I'm extremely proud to be the Producer and one of the Protagonists: "With its roots in a story by Robert Louis Stevenson (the guy who wrote “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde”), Olalla is portrayed with a sly undercurrent of self-deceptive innocence by Hesketh herself. She yearns to be an ordinary woman and go shopping, but she does not have “ordinary” in, umm, well, in her blood. She tries but cannot long stand to pretend, like the rest of her family does, not even after the repeated encouragements of a skillfully applied riding crop, wielded by the family’s dedicated enforcer, Felipe, played with exquisite intensity by Jac Avila (hard-ass to the max, but with Olalla’s best interests seething in his Vampire-heart). Tough love, thy name is Felipe."
To begin, again, etc.,...: My review of OLALLA, Amy Hesketh's new Vampire fil...: Amy Hesketh’s OLALLA would have become a favorite film of mine even without the Vampires. And I know my female Vampires. DRACULA...

AMY HESKETH INTERVIEW ABOUT BARBAZUL
Amy gets another interview, this time about Barbazul, this is what she had to say about me:
How did Jac prepare for his role as one of the most calculating killers I have ever seen?
He became Barbazul; charming, and yet abrupt and sometimes rude. He was hard to handle while we were shooting. It was great for his performance. But he scared a couple of the actresses. Which he apologized for after we were done and he was out of character. He’s a really nice guy in real life.
Read it all here: Obscure Video And DVD Blog: AMY HESKETH INTERVIEW.........: "This is another interview I conducted with Amy Hesketh a while back about the movie BARBAZUL. It has taken a while to finally get this published."

Maleficarum
An excellent review of my film Maleficarum in French.
Le thème de l'inquisition inspira le Septième Art à la fin des années 1960 jusqu'au milieu des années 1970, avec quelques œuvres emblématiques comme LE GRAND INQUISITEUR, LE TRONE DE FEU, LA MARQUE DU DIABLE et bien évidemment LES DIABLES.
De nos jours, on ne parle plus guère des chasseurs de sorcières dans le cinéma, et pourtant voilà que sort à la fin de l'année 2011 ce MALEFICARUM, en provenance d'une nation lointaine : la Bolivie !
