October 8th, 2010 by Devi Snively (The Directrix)

jizz woods smGoogle alerts failed me.  Our producer Agustin found a new trippin’ review that nearly made me act like the girl I pretend not to be.  I was truly moved.  Thanks, APOCALYPSE LATER for such a wonderful review! I’m almost speechless (which is unheard of as those in the know will undoubtedly confirm.)  In other news, trippin’ will screen at this year’s B-Movie Festival in Syracuse with two acting award nominations!  Read the rest of this entry »
