The Last Showing short film

In The Last Showing, a theater is terrorized by a spirit which manifests during the last nightly showing. The Last Showing is a 12-minute short film in post-production with an anticipated release date of early 2018. The short is based on a  feature length screenplay of the same name. The short film focuses on the primary characters of the feature, but with a different ending.

Starring Lara Jean Mummert (2Jennifer, Anomaly) as Mary, Max Troia (Brawl is War) as Steven and Joseph Camilleri (Blood Relative) as Michael. You can view the IMDB page here. Many thanks to all who supported it!




The Last Showing started as a pitch idea for the Horror Writer's Convention in Long Beach. Upon hearing the news the pitch session was no longer happening I began to research what it would take to produce the film. The first step was finding a location. Of the three theaters that responded Towne 3 Cinema in San Jose fit the mold of a "2nd run" theater as needed for the film. Not only did it fit the mold the theater featured enough creepy locations I extended the second half of the film to feature them!

Principal photography took place between August 14 - 16th, plus an additional day of shooting on the 25th. The Last Showing will be available for streaming end of April / early May followed by the blu-ray.
