The impact and influence of entertainment have been shown to further spawn an epiphany for creativity in the minds of the audiences observing. However, the motivation for formulating a piece of fiction goes beyond just making movies and tv shows. Imagination equally thrives in countless ways, such as the various forms of literature. The comic book industry has seen many people inspired by numerous renditions of media, giving way to folks creating their own forms of storytelling through writing and artwork. Beyond that, with the world being so unique and diverse, many comic writers have taken the opportunity to implement aspects that give their stories more layers to them. In the case of the comic series “Primal Warrior Draco Azul,” we have a successful blend of vibrant spectacle with immersive worldbuilding.

With filmmaker Millie Loredo’s serial killer revenge feature Sorrow having wrapped recently, we thought it time to give the Dread Central audience a first look at the blood-soaked independent flick. Read on!
Written and directed by first-time feature filmmaker Loredo, who also produces alongside John Benton, John Mastrangelo and Melanie DeMayo, Sorrow stars actress Vannessa Vasquez as "Mila Sweeney," a woman attacked by serial killers, who is taken to a decaying home where the torture and humiliation continue before she manages to escape.

At Texas Frightmare Weekend 2012, I stumbled across a little movie called Jacob (review here), and it completely blew me away. For a completely independent picture made for extremely little money, it packed an emotional punch that few mainstream horror films can pull off.
Truth be told, I've paid to see movies in the theater that display less skill and power than Jacob, and that's a damn shame, but finally someone was wise enough to pick up this gem for distribution, and as of April 16th, Jacob is out on DVD and Blu-ray for your viewing pleasure courtesy of Kino Lorber's Horizon Movies.
Jacob had a return performance at this year's Texas Frightmare Weekend to celebrate its release, and I sat down with main man Larry Carrell to chat about writing, directing, and acting in the film.
Mr. Dark: Give us the background on yourself, and what you've done so far.
