Who is the creator, you ask?
He's a Dancer. He's a Musician. He's an Artist. And now... he's a Director! Joining us to chat all about his newest film, Turquoise Jeep's own, Flynt Flossy!
SYNOPSIS: In the eerie city of Duskenridge, people are mysteriously vanishing. As fear spreads through the city, the real terror is only beginning. When a popular delivery app becomes a gateway for something far more sinister. Inspired by classic 1980s & 90s horrors, Rideshare Revenge blends retro scares, dark humor, and modern-day paranoia into one chilling world.
Feel free to experience the full film without our commentary on YouTube:
