Seriously? Some one is actually going to ask me if I'm going to have another Lesbian Main character in my lastest cheese fest, Blood Fare? Really? I thought we moved past questions like this when I released my third feature film Denizen on IndieFlix.

As you recall, the character of Deacon was a married lesbian who kicked some serious creature tushie.  The straight critics actually Liked the movie. I think the formula works. So I'm sticking to it. At least for now. Now I just need a hot lesbian to play the main character...know any hot lesbians? Send them my way. We're talking chicks that the DoorQ's can admire and that would make the ladies and straight boys drool. I'm too old for this "main character" stuff...so don't let it even cross your mind. I'm sticking behind the camera on this one.

We are shooting Blood Fare in yes,...
