Horror
Director: Jason Huls
Log Line: A short horror film inspired by the work of H.P. Lovecraft.
Synopsis: Alistair, a genetic researcher, saves his own life from cancer by making a pact with some dark and dangerous people. The secret lies with whatever is making the odd sounds in Alistair's basement. The deal he made forbids him to go down there for three days...no matter what he sees or hears. His sanity, his life, depends on it.
As the line between reality and delusion fades, Alistair struggles with nosy neighbors (Richard Pryor Jr.), a rival ex-boss (Daniel Roebuck, LOST) and haunting images of a lady in blue. Getting out of the house only makes his anxiety worse. With each passing hour, an urge to open the door slowly chips away at him...
Will he be able to resist? What's making all that noise beneath the floorboards? How is Alistair connected to the lady in blue and what is beyond the basement door?

Documentary
Director: Paul Lyzun
Log Line: The story young woman imprisoned for her role in a triple homicide and the effects on a rural Indiana community.
Synopsis: This is a documentary on Charity Payne, a young woman sentenced to 165 years in prison for her role in the triple homicide murders in Lakeville, Indiana in September 2000. This story follows her life up to the murders, through her incarceration and release.
On September 14, 2000, Wayne Shumaker, Corby Myers, and Lynn Ganger were building a loft in a pole barn in an upscale, rural Indiana home. Phillip Stroud and 3 others showed up to burglarize the home, unaware the construction workers were on site. Instead of fleeing, Stroud had the men tied up. He then shot each of them in the head with a .9mm handgun.
Stroud later admitted to the killings and how they bypassed the burglar alarm due to information provided by Charity, who had dated the son of the homeowners. Charity was convicted of triple homicide and sentenced to 165 years in prison. It was one of the most publicized cases in northern Indiana history.
