                                                       Julie Anne

Julie Anne was born and raised in the St.Petersburg, Florida area. She was inspired to pursue a career in the entertainment business at an early age. Her mother was a stay at home mom, and children�s book/screenplay writer, and she encouraged Julie to write and perform throughout her childhood and early teens.
 By the age of 20, Julie Anne had established herself as a spokes model (working with companies such as Troma Studios and Sony PlayStation), as well as an alternative model (appearing in the nationally distributed Gothic Beauty Magazine).
Soon after she began performing small burlesque shows, as a way to have more action in her art. But stage shows were not enough for Julie Anne, she wanted to go even further and pursue full creative expression as an actress.
Julie Anne has been working non stop for the past 5 years, and presently has an impressive film resume, ranging from feature length films ("The Uh Oh Show (formally known as Herschell Gordons Lewis's Grim Fairy Tale)", "Dead End"), award winning shorts ("2:22", "Spare the Rod", "Night Scream" (on the "Slices" DVD), to t.v. programs ("Dr. G: Medical Examiner").
She is planning on continuing to act full time, as she feels she has finally found her perfect outlet!

                                                         Victoria DeMare

Dubbed by the media, �Hollywood�s Hottest Scream Queen,� Victoria De Mare (actress, professional dancer, and model) started her expansive career in the horror film genre with a bang when she was cast in Roger Corman�s horror/comedy film Slaughter Studios in 2002. From that point on her place in B-movies would be further solidified by her near constant work in horror, science fiction, and thrillers. In just five years Victoria had managed to work on 25 feature films and two shorts in her favorite genre.
Originally from the East Coast, Victoria graduated from New York University with a B.A. in Theatre Arts and Broadcast Journalism. Victoria then trained in New York in the Meisner and Method techniques. In addition to being a model and published poet, she is also an accomplished dancer. She has danced professionally with the Wilmington Ballet and Joffrey Ballet Companies as well as dancing as a guest artist at the St. Croix Ballet and is currently a member of the Hart Pulse Dance Company in Los Angeles.
Since relocating to Hollywood, Victoria�s continued determination has landed her numerous lead and starring roles, including Azira: Blood from the Sand, Shadows, Psychon Invaders, and most recently Werewolf in a Women�s Prison, marking her second collaboration with director Jeff Leroy. She is also anticipating the release of The Stolen Moments of September, in which she stars opposite C. Thomas Howell.

                                                         Cyndi Crotts

Cyndi started her acting and modeling career at the tender age of 15 in Salt Lake City, Utah. Modeling was a stepping-stone for her acting career but she would soon find out that her personal life would become her challenge. Growing up was hard for Cyndi since her parent�s career always kept them moving constantly. From the age 7 until the age of 17, Cyndi moved from state to state. She tried for years to get into the acting & modeling industry but never had a chance to establish herself long enough before she was having to move again. Years later she decided to move to Florida where she went on to pursue her acting career. She has worked in many films including "Spare the Rod�, �Slip of the Tongue�, �Brainjacked�, �Bikini Monsters�, �Tidbits of Terror II�, and "Death Plots: My Stalker Death�.
She has also appeared in television films such as "Table of Choices", "Amazing News" for Japanese television, and "Their Eyes Were Watching God". She has also been in numerous commercials and infomercials as well as print ads. Amongst everything else Cyndi is also a dedicated walker for the America's Walk for Diabetes and has been for over 10 years. Her mother was diagnosed with diabetes when Cyndi was a senior in High School. Since then, she has wanted to find a way to help find a cure. This is the big reason Cyndi started walking for Diabetes. In 1999 & 2002 she received "Gold Medals" for most funds raised, in 2004 she received the "Golden Soles Trophy Award" in 2005 she received the "Silver Champions Award" for her fund raising efforts and in 2006 she received a medal into the "Elite Feet Club". Cyndi would like to also remember her father, who supported her work until he passed away in 2001. She would also like to thank her friend�s and family for always giving her the encouragement she needs to continue her acting and modeling career.

                                                    Brooke Lewis

A native of Philadelphia, the vivacious and versatile Brooke Lewis has made a quick impact as both an actress and producer. Brooke relocated to New York where she began her professional career. Her first major taste of the limelight came from Tony n' Tina's Wedding - the Off-Broadway hit comedy- in which she played the "prima donna" bridesmaid Donna Marsala. Brooke soon signed with Tazmania/Metropolitan Records and released the freestyle song "Get Me Off Your Mind".
Brooke would also find success on-screen, appearing in The Rules (For Men), A Packing Suburbia, Fare Well Miss Fortune, and Pride & Loyalty. She headed west - to Hollywood. There, she would create Philly Chick Pictures, an endeavor designed to increase opportunities in front of the camera, as well as behind it.
Since making the move, Brooke has had roles in, or on, several projects, including, Quintuplets, Mafiosa, Break, Gerald, Dahmer Vs. Gacy and Double Tap. She recently starred opposite Butch Patrick (Eddie Munster) in the indie TV pilot/web series Life's A Butch. Some of this firecracker's impressive producing credits include: Circuit Riders (actress/producer), Broken Angel (co-producer), Kinky Killers (actress/co-executive producer) and iMurders (actress/executive producer).
Among projects still in production, or yet to be released, are The Drum Beats Twice (actress/executive producer), The Sinatra Club (actress/producer) and Slime City Massacre (actress/associate producer). In March of 2009, Brooke launched the Ms. Vampy TV/talk show/web series, in which she starred, produced and directed! She was honored by Screamqueen.com as SCREAM QUEEN OF THE MONTH November 2008!!! SCARS MAGAZINE honored her with the centerfold and interview in Volume 2, Issue 2 and she graced the October 2009 Cover of SCARS with iMURDERS Co-star Tony Todd. Last Doorway Productions chose her as the first ever BLEEDING BEAUTY OF THE MONTH August 2009 and she was chosen SINISTER GIRL of 2009 by Sinister Space. As if she is not busy enough, Brooke strongly believes in charity work and was chosen HOT HUNKS OF HORROR HOTTIE 2009. The amazing hunky horror calendar benefits the Lynn Sage Foundation for Breast Cancer Research and Brooke will promote this cause throughout the year. She is also an award sponsor for the favorite horror film festival Shriekfest. Brooke is a proud member of Women In Film and Film Independent. And, during football season (when she finally decides to take a break from working!), you will always find her at a sports bar cheering for the Philadelphia EAGLES!

                                            A Tribute To Brinke Stevens

       When you hear the term 'Scream Queen,' you may think of a gorgeous woman demonstrating the true power of her lungs�or maybe you see a scantily clad girl running through a forest desperate to escape an unstoppable killer. When these evil visions flood your thoughts, more often than not the beautiful Brinke Stevens has invaded your mind's eye as well. Not only is she the 'Godmother' (and I hate using that word since she still looks 28 years old!) of the Scream Queen era, she's still belting out one enjoyable low budget flick after another.
For nearly two decades Brinke has raided our living room in hundreds (literally!) of entertaining flicks such as her first film Slumber Party Massacre, which she recalls fondly.

"They wanted me for the lead but I had already booked a modeling job so they had to kill me off quickly. I worked three days. It was the first film I took a shower in. It was the first film I scream and die horribly in. This set a trend for me!"

And what a trend setter she was. Brinke would embark on a B movie journey not taken by many before her. "I was in the perfect place at the right time. Suddenly people were buying VCRs for their homes and all of these video stores were springing up with a lot of empty shelves. I worked all the time and became known by all of these college aged males. I became their darling of horror."
Brinke was unique to the dark world of terror because she was as much a fan as she was an icon. She embraced her loyal legion of fans and understood the link we all shared.

"The typical horror fan is a misfit. I understand these people because I'm one of them. Someone said to me 'face it Brinke, you're a nerd like the rest of us, just better looking.'"

I ask her if she's ever worried about creepy fans lingering around her doorstep. She just smiles and purrs, "People have seen my movies. I scare the shit out of them."

With the advent of digital video and the DVD player, Brinke is still kicking some major ass on home video. It's also allowed her to work with a fresh group of guerrilla filmmakers and lure a slew of new fans to the dark side.

"It's very different now since they don't have the budgets. It comes out of their own pockets. I'm always looking for the next big thing and I believe I worked with some last year. One is Steve Sessions who's based in Biloxi, Mississippi. He did a movie called Dead Clowns.The man is an amazing cinematographer and director."

Working with new up and coming talent has never been easier for Brinke. "I made thirteen films last year," including a unique flick called Dr Horror's House of Idiots,which she wrote a third of. "Paul Scravo, who worked with me on my Private Collection 4, put together a horror/comedy/musical that will blow your mind. It's completely new and it really works."

It's like the 80s never ended! The titles remain as alluring as ever. Of late, Brinke has appeared in such cleverly titled flicks as Corpses are Forever, Cheerleader Massacre Delta Delta Die. "Most people know how to use me and they tailor a part for me or they throw me a curve, like a movie I'm doing in Phoenix. They told me they wrote the part with me in mind. I play a mother in a very dysfunctional family and she's such a bitch. I'm thinking 'you had me in mind, huh?' But I'm also doing a movie called Xelinewhere I play a Black Ops Army woman. It's an enormous amount of dialog to memorize. It's very Sigourney Weaver from 'Alien.' I'm looking forward to that."

       Starring in two movies in one year would be considered a success by most actors, but it's just a drop in the hat to what 2004 has to offer Brinke. Not only does she have a full calendar as an actress, she also plays host in the Tempe DVD release Something to Scream About, a loving retrospective of several women who have become cult horror icons. And she's anticipating the DVD premiere of the intriguing behind the scenes documentary Shock Cinema which she also hosted as well as co-produced with director David DeCoteau. In fact, Brinke has been working behind the scenes for quite some time. She's currently shopping around scripts with Sean O'Bannon and shot a trailer for a screenplay she's written entitled Buried Nightmares. "I sold my fourth script to Gene Vine and for the first time I went in as a co-producer on a motion picture. That has sort of stalled. We worked two years on it, but we can't seem to raise the money."

"After 23 years in the business, I've pretty much met everybody involved in the B movie industry. I'm confident some of these connections will pan out."

But wait! There's more! Brinke has recently been featured in a book called Assault of the KillerB's. Not one to be outdone, she's composed an essay on the subject for the book Attack of the BQueens. In fact, Brinke is quite the writer. Besides penning several scripts and contributing to books on the horror genre, she's working on a young adult novel, a children's tale and also freelances for various magazines as a travel writer. Talk about an Accidental Tourist!

"It's character arc as they say. From not wanting to be an actress to becoming a cult celebrity and moving into producing and probably directing is a total fulfillment."

With this year looking as busy as the last, it's no surprise when Brinke proclaims "I have no personal life!" But it looks like her fans wouldn't want it any other way.
