Here's a movie that PEOPLE ALSO WATCHED...Now here’s a movie that PEOPLE ALSO WATCHED...when stunt people need to make a reel and don’t have a movie, what do they do? They make a movie. Now that sentence is completely made up. I have no idea of the history of this movie except that Adam sent us the trailer and we couldn’t pass it up. Avialable on YouTube and made in 1994, it’s PAROLE VIOLATORS!

Two couples take a weekend getaway in the middle of the desert, only to discover that their Airbnb is already occupied. It’s a long and bloody night told from four points-of-view.
TRAVIS GREENE (DIRECTOR/PRODUCER) Travis is a director, producer, cinematographer, editor and sound designer. The content of his films skews towards the absurd and subversive. Feeding his predilection for unorthodox storytelling and offbeat characters, Greene utilizes the power of cinema, to exemplify and elevate the human experience.
JONATHAN BUCHANAN (WRITER/PRODUCER) Jonathan has been a writer most of life. He’s tried his hand at poetry, short stories, a novel and standup comedy. Mostly known as a songwriter, he’s written and recorded dozens of songs about quirky characters with a propensity for murder. He wrote his first screenplay in 2000 while living in Chicago, but 8 FOUND DEAD is his first to be made into a film.
