Michael Entler

Guest

Michael Entler is the creative force behind The Amelus, which has existed in some form or other since about 1989. First starting with hybrid music multimedia projects, and later moving into live private events that focused on narrative science fiction and philosophical horror that could be described roughly as artsy haunted house type shenanigans.
Its current array and arrangement is to be the more sinister sibling to the collective known as Monsieur Soeur, and work on projects that require a more unsettling touch and tone. 

Michael Reaves

Michael Reaves is the author of two dozen books, 400+ teleplays, 6 features, plus short stories, graphic novels, comic books, and on and on ... He’s written for STAR TREK -- THE NEXT GENERATION, HE-MAN AND THE MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE, THE TWILIGHT ZONE (No, the 80s version), THE REAL GHOSTBUSTERS, CAPTAIN POWER AND THE SOLDIERS OF THE FUTURE, and other shows with very long names. It’s safe to say that, if you were alive during the 80’s and you didn’t go outside and play like your mother said to, you’re now ripe for joining his legion of cartoon zombies.

Michael Shea

Guest

Michael Shea was born in Los Angeles—in Culver City, across the street from the huge north wall of MGM Studio's main lot. There, the billboard-size movie ads greeted his infant eyes, and taught him awe and a love of grand narratives. An inveterate hitch hiker before, during, and after his college years, he encountered, in a flophouse up in Juneau, Alaska, a book of pure Fantasy entitled The Eyes of The Overworld.

Michael Swertfager lived a normal life in the rat race of the Silicon Valley until he attended the 2005 H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival. That weekend his interest in H.P. Lovecraft and Edgar Allan Poe shifted from a hobby to an obsession. He has since been consumed by an unyielding desire to document the evil deeds of Edgar Allan Poe's actions during eight horrific nights in 1842. With years of study in animation and art, Michael stepped away from his domestic world and entered the craze of the artist.

Monsieur Soeur

Guest

Monsieur Soeur has been making various films with varying subjects, usually in a very scant amount of time, since about 2005. They have a taste in dark folk fables and speculating on fictitious subjects based precariously on fact and science-y hearsay, but are willing to entertain other things on occasion.
