It’s 1985 and adventurer, Jonathan Danger, has just crash landed onto an island off the coast of Africa, looking for a temple that may be his ticket to go back in time. Too bad the Soviets got there first.
It’s 1985 and adventurer, Jonathan Danger, has just crash landed onto an Island 20 miles off the coast of Africa. He’s looking for a temple that may or may not be his ticket to go back in time. Too bad the Soviets got there first. Too bad they want to go back in time to change the events of the Space Race and the Cold War and World War II. Too bad he has a punctured a lung. Too bad he’s been kidnapped by Jungle Jim and his sister Jade Calloway. Too bad he never gives up.

Here’s a first look at Danger! Danger! A sneak peek at all of the amazing work we’ve been up to! Danger! Danger! is a love letter to the films that made us want to be directors in the first place when we were growing up watching films like Empire Strikes Back, Back to the Future, Indiana Jones, the Goonies, and so many other wonderful films from the 1980s!
Danger! Danger! allowed us to work with an amazing cast and stars Benedict Mazurek, Paul Haapaniemi, Angela Smeraldi, Alexandra Keller, Alexander Harris, and Matt Boone.

So exited to announce that Haunting of the White Sparrow is our next release on Crypt TV, as part of our new deal as the exclusive homes to our short films! This follows the release of both The Umbrella Factory and Jack the Ripper!
After a wonderful Film Festival run that included the likes of Seattle, Los Angeles, Salt Lake City, Sacramento, London and Greece to name just a few, Haunting of the White Sparrow was also a Special Halloween Vimeo Select and has been featured in magazines and websites around the world.
Crypt TV, with their headquarters in LA, has millions of subscribers across their various networks and social sites. The studio was founded by Jack Davis and Eli Roth.
We just wrapped production on Danger! Danger! our next feature film. It was the most amazing and hardest thing we’ve ever done. And when I say hard, I mean it, but it was also the adventure of a lifetime.
Growing up, the most exciting thing we could think of was to grow to be filmmakers working on films like Indiana Jones and exploring lost temples. Or driving time traveling DeLoreans in Back to the Future. Or finding forgotten Pirate Ships like the Goonies.
The thing that I never expected though, was to have the opportunity to work with such an AMAZING Cast and Crew. One that joined in on those experiences and came along on those adventures with us. Everyone who worked on Danger! Danger! gave 1000 percent. Not because they had to, but because, like us, love making movies.
It’s an experience that will stay with us forever.
AND we cannot wait to begin sharing Danger! Danger! with everyone else!

We are so EXCITED to announce our Next Feature Film, DANGER! DANGER!
Production kicks off today and continues until the end of July. Danger! Danger! is a love letter to the Spielberg Movies of the 80s that we grew up with and made us want to be filmmakers. Taking inspiration from The Goonies, Back to the Future, and Indiana Jones, we’ve never been more excited!

We’ve COMPLETED a years long mission to find locations for each of our upcoming film projects! When we produced The West and the Ruthless, the amount of production value that Old Tucson Studios brought to the film was priceless. Not only for it’s amazing backlot, buildings, and production design, but also for the people that worked there - which is one of the most important aspects of any project (that’s why we have more projects we’re hoping to bring back to Tucson!)
That said, some stories aren’t westerns or set in the desert. So you have to travel the world looking for Alien Planets, Victorian Backlots, 1950s Motels, Jungles, and Post-Apocalyptic wastelands.
Here’s a sneak peak at a recent scout. Is that a space ship? Yes. yes it is.
We’ve also had the chance to hang out at Disney, Paramount, Diamond V, Middleton Movie Ranch, Rancho Deluxe, and SO many more!
We’re SO excited to be almost finished with a BIG mission. Over the last few years we’ve been location scouting like crazy. We’ve been around the world and back and hung out at some of the coolest studios in the world, including a few right down the street. Every time it’s like visiting a different world.
Not every location works, but when it does, it’s amazing to find the place your story can come to life.
Here’s one of our most recent scouts!
Our short film, Little Red Riding Hood will be playing this weekend on Robert Rodriguez’s El Rey Network again! It’s part of an amazing collection of short films hosted by Jorge R. Gutiérrez (director of the Book of Life). It’ll also feature exclusive interviews with filmmakers and behind the scenes!
Little Red Riding Hood was shot in the Sierra Nevada region of California and tells the story in black and white photographs. The film has previously screened in Film Festivals around the world!
The second location we toured was the Gaol (pronounced “jail”) in downtown Melbourne. It’s something straight out of Gotham City! These two truly remarkable locations not only look great, but are accessible to the public, so if you’re ever down under, you have to check them out!
We just returned from Australia where we were able to tour two AMAZING locations for a film we’re working on! The first location we toured was Montsalvat outside of Melbourne. It’s a fantastic mix of Tim Burton and Harry Potter! Check out some fo the pics below!
We’ve been beyond busy. Along with a full slate of commercials this Fall we’ve also been busy wrapping up lots and lots of film meetings. Tons of film meetings. Meetings, meetings, meetings. Phone Calls and emails. Lots of emails. But the coolest thing about pre-production on a film is the location scouting. That moment when you find the perfect place and it brings your entire vision together. The moment you can envision your cast there. This happened at Blue Cloud Movie Ranch, Disney’s Backlot, and Big Sky Ranch - which you can see below!
Next stop, New Zealand and then onto Australia!

We’re really excited to announce that Robert Rodriguez’s El Rey Network is extending their option on The Umbrella Factory another year! We’re really proud of this film and love working with the great folks over at El Rey!
This also means everyone gets to watch our short film and the exclusive behind the scenes on television for another year!
The Umbrella Factory is the award winning short film directed by Nick + Lexie that first screened at film festivals around the world. It made it’s first television debut in 2017.
Since we have a jungle project, we’ve been going to rainforests all around the world. From Costa Rica to the indoor jungles of St. Louis at the Climatron, to the gardens of Pasadena, and out to the island of Kauai. Here we climbed the edges of cliffs, beautiful rivers and beaches, and hopped in a helicopter!
