ATTACK OF THE ANGRY MOON CATS (Super 8; 1985)

My second flick was a 50's Sci-Fi inspired short called Attack of the Angry Moon Cats. It stars Rob MacDonald as a reporter who sees a UFO landing (it was running low on plutonium) while making out with his girlfriend (Gina Rahman). The two aliens onboard (Glen Boswall and Nick Grant) kidnap Gina, and no one will believe Rob, who then takes it upon himself to defeat the Moon Cats and get his girlfriend back.

In an arty shot that could only have been inspired by the music videos of the day, Rob and Gina's hands are pulled apart as Gina is abducted.


Here, Rob makes his way through the corridors of the alien spacecraft.


And Nick, the alien, shoots his ray gun in response.



GOODBYE COLOMBIA (Super 8; 1984)

Two images from the first flick I ever made, a Scarface inspired short called Goodbye Colombia.

At the film's climax, after the heroine (Chris Ainsley) has stabbed the hero (Sam Shalabi) to death, she answers the door only to be greeted by the villain's (Glen Boswall) handgun.



This was followed by The Attack of the Angry Moon Cats (Super 8; 1985).
