Lovers, Liars and Lunatics

Michael has a leading role in "Lovers, Liars and Lunatics" AVAILABLE NOW ON DVD.

In this dark comedy from director Amber Benson, a pair of bumbling burglars break into what they think is an unoccupied house...only to discover that the family they've come to rob is actually asleep inside.

Trying to remedy the botched burglary, the would-be robbers take the family hostage in hopes of securing some cash.

Too late do they realize their mistake; that their hostages are more dysfunctional than they first appear. Slowly the burglars find themselves embroiled in the family's problems until it becomes apparent that they are the ones being held hostage, ensnared in a war of murderous intent.

Disconnect
Michael stars in this new independent which is almost ready for release. From Robin C. Peters of Dreamscape Cinema, this is the story of a distraught college student who finds a phone that enables her to talk to her deceased mom. Instead of a heart attack, she learns that her mom was murdered. She tries to use the phone to stop the murder before it happens.
