helpful in the creative process. The book is designed for writers,

and the construction of humorous characters and situations are
explained, with examples drawn from some of the most popular motion
pictures Hollywood has ever produced. This book discusses the recent
megahit-blockbuster movies such as SPIDER-MAN, SHREK, HARRY POTTER,
BRUCE ALMIGHTY, MATRIX TRILOGY, FINDING NEMO, PIRATES OF THE
CARIBBEAN and THE LORD OF THE RINGS.

DO NOT miss the World Premiere of
Brain Damage Films'
THE WITCH'S SABBATH at the
INTERNATIONAL HORROR & SCI-FI FILM FESTIVAL
THE WITCH'S SABBATH: SYNOPSIS
The Witch's Sabbath tells the tale of a coven of witches who mask their true identity by operating the "Sin & Skin" strip club. To keep the coven as one, they must behead 666 victims before the arrival of their Dark Lord on Halloween. Unsuspecting victims are carefully chosen at the strip club and find themselves invited to feast at a sinister mansion where the ladies of "Sin & Skin" offer their victims one final meal.
With their deadline fast approaching, the head witch, Auriana , makes a desperate attempt to meet their Lord's demands. They soon realize that the attendees of their final dinner on All Hallow's Eve prove to be more than just victims.
