MVP and Mutantville.com are proud to announce the addition of Charlotte-based actor Davis Osborne to the already
stellar cast of “G.H.O.S.T.” Davis joins Dave Tunik on the set this weekend. He will play the part of “Joshua” in the first of a series of new scenes introducing the eponymous ghost hunting team in “G.H.O.S.T.’
Davis has appeared in a multiplicity of productions in and around the Charlotte area – including “Pursuit”, “Tolerance”, and the award winning short film “Chekov’s Children” by director Robert Fillion.
Davis initially auditioned for “G.H.O.S.T.” at the casting call back in August of ‘09 – but was unable to accept a role at the time due to schedule conflicts. Director J.T. McRoberts states, “I was very impressed with Davis’ auditions. Davis quite literally blew us away with his reading. I was always disappointed that we weren’t able to align our schedules to allow him to join us at the time. As soon as I started reading through the new scenes and thinking of the talent in the area – Davis’ name immediately sprung to mind. I reached out to him about participating and he graciously accepted.”
Davis’ philosophy on acting is proudly displayed on his website where he states, “every character . . . ever written, has an emotion to convey . . . to evoke in the silent bystander . . . the one in the shadows . . . the viewer. Pity. . .hate. . .fear. . .lust. . .love. . .concern. It is my job as the actor to search deep inside of me. . . . and find the parts of my human nature that I can use and magnify to deliver more than a performance. . .”
Mutantville Productions is headed back to the set this week as the new shooting schedule for “G.H.O.S.T.” begins in earnest! Principle photography was completed in November, pick ups were filmed over December, and the first assembly was completed over the winter holiday. After the first cut came in at a healthy 47 minute run time – producers Brent Bowers, Geo Blalock and writer/director J.T. McRoberts decided to invest in shooting some new scenes to expand the short film into a full length feature. After weeks of heavy work on the script for new scenes – the pieces are set in motion and MVP is on it’s way back to the set.
This week – we stop at a local bookstore where the fans will have a chance to meet and greet the one and only G.B. Cunningham from “G.H.O.S.T. “ Actors Dave Tunik and Davis Osborne are excited to head back to the set to bring the new scene to life. Filming on these additional scenes will continue through the few months and is expected to conclude in April. Keep watching Mutantville.com for your up to the minute MVP news!
Mutantville Productions is extremely proud to announce the addition of Matthew Ewald to the cast of “G.H.O.S.T.” Ewald is flying to the east coast at the end of the month to join actor Scott Thomas in the historic opera house for a scene based during the Civil War.
Matthew starred as Nick Bluetooth on the FOX/ABC series “Galidor” and will star as the young James T. Kirk on upcoming episodes of the award winning web series – “Star Trek Voyages: Phase II.’ Matthew has starred in several films and is currently on tour for his first novel, “. . . Human. . . Nature. . .”, now available for pre-order and due out in the coming months.
Although Matthew will only shoot for one day – his role in the story of “G.H.O.S.T.” is a pivotal one that sets in motion a chain of events with deadly repercussions for each member of the G.H.O.S.T. team.
Matthew brimmed with excitement when speaking of his role, “I’m so excited, forgive me for saying it again, but wow… this is going to be amazing. I haven’t been this excited in… well… 
What can I say? This is a dream role.”
MVP is proud to welcome Matthew to the talented cast of “G.H.O.S.T.” and hopes that this marks the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

This week – Streebo’s B-movie poster watch takes a look at the classic poster art for the “based on a atrue story” horror film that shocked the nation in the late Seventies – The Amityville Horror! This spooky poster features the classic evil house taking up the entirety of the composition – with the classic tag line screaming down the middle of the poster, “for God’s sake, get out!” This simple design does it’s job well by creating a tone of dread by using the imposing image of the house juxtaposed against the urgency of the tagline. If you like what you see – this poster can be yours! Follow the link below to eBay and place your bid now!

ABOMINATIONS
Screenplay by: Chad Law
Producer: Carolina Filmworks & Image Impact Group
Director: Robert W. Filion
Tagline: What is the Boogeyman afraid of?
Synopsis: After facing the gruesomeness of war in the Middle East, a weary and jaded Val Worthington returns home to his sister Alex. Despite much protest, Alex ropes Val into camping in the mountains for the weekend with her and her college friends. Instead of finding fun and adventure, the group stumbles upon something so ghastly it would give the Boogeyman nightmares.
Carolina Filmworks and Image Impact Group are currently seeking professional and experienced actors for a trailer for the upcoming Feature film ABOMINATIONS. The trailer will be used to secure funds for the project. While there are several roles available for the feature we are only casting three roles at this time. Please note that because this is an investor trailer, work is on a volunteer basis. However it is our hope that in casting the trailer we will also have our leads cast!
Only submit if you fit the breakdowns below. Anyone not fitting descriptions below will not be considered. Note: these are the three lead characters.
David Arkem: Male/30+/ 6’7”(will consider over 6’3”)/Massive but not overweight/Gruff voice/Sadistic/Grizzly/Intimidating…our Boogeyman. (Think Kane Hodder)
Alex Worthington: Female/22 Younger sister of Val. Caring and nurturing she worries about her brother’s state of mind post war. All American girl next-door type, unassuming but more than meets the eye.
Val Worthington: Male/25 War torn soul that returns home somewhat detached from the life he once loved. Loyal but cynical. Would prefer to be left alone.
The location for auditions is not yet set and will most likely be February 13th.
