A surreal mosaic pieced together from fractured memories and childhood recollections as told by an unnamed narrator who relives a traumatic incident from his past. A time when people went about their lives, and yet, they told tales of a predator who stalked the streets at night, sneaking into windows and abducting the innocent; this menace went by one name, Pastor Jessup.

Within the Woods
The low budget film starring the young Bruce Campbell that influenced the Evil Dead films.
Night Stream
Night Stream, a short experimental film about rebirth and fertility, succinctly evokes the flow of tension and trance within the dream state.
No End
No End was inspired by a poem I wrote over the course of six months. During this process, abstract images surfaced, subsided, and settled: eventually forming the foundation of a film. The result is a lyrical journey that explores the intersection of interconnectivity and the lived experience. The film includes an original soundtrack by Graham Stewart of Viosac.
