The Killer PosterNow, before you get all scared and start locking your doors and windows, let me explain. I’m talking about a short film I did about 2 years ago. The film is called The Killer.

It was written & directed by David Nelson and stars, 4 time emmy winner, Michael Learned and veteran character actor Miguel Sandoval.

I guess it would fall into the scary movie category but I like to think of it more as a thriller with a twist. Parents might want to check it out before they let the kids watch it just to make sure it’s appropriate. There’s really not anything inappropriate but the subject matter is definitely NOT Playhouse Disney. I’d tell you what it’s about but I don’t want to spoil the fun. Let’s just say, it’s 8 minutes you’ll never forget.

Well, anyway, after a very successful run, making the rounds at all the major film festivals, The Killer has found a home on Fearnet. Just click on this link and you’ll be taken right to the quaint little town of Bremen Falls. 

So please, make yourself comfortable, sit back and check it out. Feel free to rate the film on Fearnet. Then post a comment here and let me know what you thought of it.

Enjoy!

Lou & LouNew episodes of Lou & Lou: Safety Patrol are now airing on Playhouse Disney along with all your past favorites. The show can be seen on Playhouse Disney everyday at 8:25 am and twice a day on the weekends at 8:55 am and 11:25 am. So tell your friends. Set your alarms. Program your VCR’s. And enjoy!

For those of you that might be new to Safety Patrol, let me give you the 4-1-1. Lou & Lou: Safety Patrol is an animated short series and I am the voice of Louise. The show follows the brother and sister team of Lou & Lou (”That’s Louise!”) and their faithful dog Louie as they patrol their neighborhood making sure their friends and family stay safe. When they come across an unsafe situation, the Safety Patrol jumps into action, points out the safety violation and saves the day.

Geared to the preschool audience, the show gives kids and parents tips on staying safe in a variety of situations. Last year, Lou & Lou: Safety Patrol received an official recommendation from The Parents Choice Foundation, whose purpose is to search out and recommend products that help kids grow - imaginatively, physically, morally and mentally.

Congratulations to Michele and all my friends at Disney for putting together such a great little show. I’m proud to be a part of it!

Congratulations also to the gang at Oddbot for bringing it to life and thanks for making me look so good!

“Well Lou, it looks like our work here is done. We’re the Safety Patrol…and we’re here to keep people safe!”
