FRANKLIN, TN, Jan. 26 - On March 6, 2010, audiences will have the opportunity to attend free movie premiere events at churches across the country. The producers of Class of '91, a new faith-based film with a financial theme, are making their film available free to any church or organization that wishes to participate. So far, 22 churches in 13 states have signed up, with the numbers growing by the week. Class of '91 portrays a family going through the worst situation today's economy has to offer. Roger Wagner has a high flying lifestyle and is looking forward to flaunting it at his upcoming 20th high school reunion. When he loses his job, home, and possessions, Roger faces going to the reunion as a failure. The whole family must adapt to the situation and their faith becomes strengthened as a result. Churches and organizations wishing to host free movie premiere events can visit Classof91Movie.com to sign up, or they may email the producers at FredWilharm@ATT.net. There's no cost and all that's required is a DVD player, projector and screen. This is a great outreach opportunity for churches with stretched budgets. After the March 6th premiere, the DVD will be available for purchase on the movie website. Class of '91 has been awarded the Dove Foundation family friendly seal of approval.

Every Hidden Thing on DVD

Tue, 09 Feb 2010 03:00:32 GMT

Jeremy Saunders (Rob Boyd, Treasure Blind) is a happily-married midwest suburbanite. Accompanied by two bizarre strangers (Emily Kira Sims and Warren Mayer), Jeremy embarks on a dangerous journey of sordid self-exploration - seemingly without consequences - believing he can get away with anything during 15-minute periods of time he is convinced aren't real. Nonetheless, his marriage to wife Brandi (Victoria Esher, Soulmates), his work, friendships and sanity all spiral out of control as he sinks ever deeper into the snare of his own misdeeds. Ultimately, Saunders finds himself questioning everything - including who he has become - as he is forced to face the Truth with one, final life-or-death decision. Every Hidden Thing was filmed entirely in Oklahoma, mostly at locations in and around Bartlesville. The film premiered at the Bare Bones Script-2-Screen Film Festival in Tulsa, OK, where it picked up four awards: Best Feature, Audience Favorite, Best Actor in a Feature, and Best Actress in a Feature. The production includes several veteran film actors, including Rob Boyd (Prize Fighter, Party Crashers, Treasure Blind), Victoria Esher (Soulmates, The Diner, Somethings Unsaid) and Michael Bush (Far and Away, Ride with the Devil, Bunker Hill), as well as many theater veterans. Every Hidden Thing is considered a mature Christian film, in that it deals with subject matter that is intended for upper youth and adults, but may not be appropriate for children.

Paranormal: Supernatural Thriller on DVD

Fri, 29 Jan 2010 22:48:53 GMT

Paranormal from Cross Shadow Productions (not to be confused with Paranormal Activity or Paranormal Entity) is a supernatural thriller that deals with themes about paranormal activity and Christian authority from a Biblical perspective. Paranormal also touches on abortion, suicide, misplaced guilt and the ways that the enemy can use our past against us. This movie was made in response to the growing fascination in the world with the paranormal. According to Dr. Ron Rhode's book, The Truth Behind Ghosts, Mediums & Psychic Phenomena, over eighty percent of teens admit to having experimented with the paranormal. On the other hand, only ten percent of teens have heard anything regarding spiritual warfare and the truth behind the paranormal from their churches. Paranormal was born from the filmmakers' desire to address these statistics in an entertaining film format. Click on the link below for more information on Paranormal.
