Short Film Review – Dusty II: Rusty’s Revenge
Anthony Leroy and Josh Murphy are at it again with the sequel to their infamous 2016 short film, Dusty.

Short Film Review: Dusty
Anthony Leroy and Josh Murphy (or A.J. as they are both credited at the start of the film) directed the short film, Dusty, in 2016. It has become something of a cult item in the realm of indie and no-budget filmmaking – and for good reason. When the film opens, best buddies CJ and T […]

Walking with Lilith: A Diary, Part 2
The first day of the Lilith shoot, I was terrified. And it showed. Yes, I was working with some of my best friends, but I was also working with some folks that I was just getting to know. To top it all off, that weekend, we were shooting the heaviest scenes in the script, on […]
