STUDIO PREPARES PRODUCTION ON NEW MOVIE PROJECT...A ZOMBIE FILM!!!

D. R. Quintana has a lot to be exited about lately. Over the course of two months in the past summer and several phone calls, he conjured up a story idea about a zombie apocalypse that was too good to pass up. Quintana began working on a screenplay, and over the course of five days, a completed script was prepared to pass around for another potential movie that is to be produced entirely south of San Antonio, Texas in a small desert town called Somerset; where the studios previous production location of PRAYING MANTIS was filmed. This time, the studio planned on producing its first zombie horror film.

A talented cast was quickly chosen for key roles in the future production and locations for production have been quickly falling into place. For Quintana, the idea of working on a zombie film seemed like child's play, especially after each scene of the script seemed to just come out from the sky and onto the keyboard. He is very excited about starting filming efforts on the new film, spending time trying to find the right locations that will fit the script. The film production is entitled HAVOC 114; a possible acronym for a toxin that has the properties to bring the dead back to life in the form of zombies.

The studio has acquired the talents of Zara Majidpour, David Perales [Zombie Reign: Revelations], Saira Ramos [Angelika5], and Val Jean Eskridge to help breath life into this new script. Most of the actors in the production have already worked with the studio on previous film projects, internet based web series, and professional photo shoots. But the studio has made mention that additional actors will be added to the film as the production beings to take shape. The studio is considering an "open call" for twelve lucky people in San Antonio to play the parts of zombies during one night of production.

Zara Majidpour stepped into the studio with a long list of IMDB credibility and several local Houston films under a strong resume that secures her certification as a professional actress. Her entrance marks a valuable change in the films production angle and schedule, adding more action and some intense close-quarter fight scenes that is sure to keep the future audience on the edge of their seats. Majidpour has also worked on several dramatic network shows that will also help performances within the film when action scenes aren't required.

Saira Ramos is a veteran studio actress who has worked on The Secret of Angelika5 in Montgomery, Texas; taking part in over 36 episodes which all ran for a little over 26 minutes. She has also worked as a model, and on her professional side, she has her own company representing talent in commercialized comic book conventions throughout the United States. She is cute, funny, and is a great person to have on your side when you need someone to lift the atmosphere. Her addition to the cast is proving to be the glue that is needed to keep the humorous side of the script in check. Quintana says that whenever Ramos is on the set, you will never know which side of the actresses personae will arrive; the funny actor or the dramatic performer who is out to make a mark in her part of the film.

HAVOC 114 goes into production in late January and is slated for a mid-March release, a possible premiere at a drive-in theater in southern San Antonio and another drive-in release in Tomball, Texas, just north of Houston, and eventual world-wide release on the Amazon streaming service.
