NETHERBEAST INCORPORATED is a quirky twist on the vampire tale set in modern day corporate America. Employees of Berm-Tech Industries, Inc. have kept the family secret for a long time. For years it has been business as usual, until the top “vampire” in charge, contracts a dreaded disease and invites the first humans to work in the office in more than a century. Soon the new employees discover that some of their associates are not what they appear to be, especially the dead one in the cubicle with a wooden stake through his heart. It will celebrate its limited theatrical opening at Harkins Valley Art in Tempe, Arizona on Friday, September 12th. See a trailer over at YouTube. Mewes plays a supporting role.

Also today, it’s just been announced that Jason Mewes will play the lead role in genre picture “Silent But Deadly.” From the press release:

“This satirical take on the slasher flick will mark the feature film directorial debut of eight time Much Music Video Award (MMVA) winner Stephen Scott. Filming over 21 days on location in Chatham, Ontario this August, “Silent but Deadly” takes a fresh look at a classic genre staple of the 70’s and 80’s. This slasher flick doesn’t revolve around immoral teens, but instead our mysterious serial killer takes aim at the cesspool of sin that is a Hollywood film set, as he unleashes his own brand of retribution on the cast and crew.”

So, a starring role for Jason. Very cool indeed. We’ll keep our eyes on this project and let you know as we hear more.

Congrats to Jason on his continuing film career, and continued success!
