International Horror & Sci-Fi Film Festival 2008

Enter the world of Rapturious, an up and coming music artist (Robert Oppel) who has a self-destructive drug habit. When his dealer (Hoya Guerra, bassist for "Madball") presents the rapper with a new drug, dark and murderous hallucinations begin. But are they really tricks of the mind or are these crimes really happening? While his manager (horror movie maven Debbie Rochon) becomes increasingly concerned about her client's unpredictable behavior, Rapturious begins to see demons, leading to the revelation of an evil entity hell-bent on claiming the musician's soul. The film also features a demented performance by Joe Bob Briggs, Cinqué Lee (Coffee and Cigarettes) and Amin Joseph (Stephen King's The Mist) Rapturious was directed by Kamal Ahmed (The Jerky Boys) and was executively produced by Artie Lange of The Howard Stern Show. As a special bonus before the feature we will be showing a short also directed by Kamal Ahmed called Uncle Freddy. The short film stars Robert Oppel and Al Burgo of Rapturious as well as features cameos from John Noonan and Tommy Houlihan of God Has a Rap Sheet. Fans in attendance will receive an exclusive letter from director Kamal Ahmed about the making of the film.
