Indie Rights Movies teams up with director Johnny Greenlaw for the release of the award winning feature film “Mommy’s Box”.

Los Angeles, California  - Indie Rights is proud to announce the release of “Mommy’s Box”, the Award Winning Feature Film from writer/director Johnny Greenlaw. The film was released theatrically in Hollywood and is now available on Amazon and Google Play with other major platforms to follow.

Mommy’s Box follows Nick, a music producer in New York City, dealing with his own demons and chemical dependency as he gets the news of his mentally unstable mothers death. He returns home to Long Island for the wake, where family secrets are revealed, forcing him to confront the lingering influence of his mother even after her death. Back home, Nick finds a new love and a sense of spirituality he never believed in. By retracing his Mother's steps to learn more about her, he starts to find himself. This leads him on a journey he never expected and ultimately onto the path to redemption.

The film stars Johnny Greenlaw as Nick along with Bill Sorvino as his brother Joey. Rounding out a talented cast is Carly Brooke (“This is Where I Leave You”), Joe D’Onofrio (“Goodfellas” and “A Bronx Tale”), David Harris (“Warriors”) and Gina Scarda as Mommy. The film was directed by Johnny Greenlaw and written by Greenlaw and Caitlin Scherer.

Mommy’s Box has been screening for the last six months at major festivals across the country. The film took home top honors at the Manhattan Film Festival 2016, winning Best Picture. The film will conclude it’s festival run as the Opening Night Film at The Black Bear Film Festival on October 14th, 2016. INDIE WIRE writes,“Mommy’s Box” is director/actor Johnny Greenlaw’s second directorial feat, and will be arriving in theaters this Friday.

“Mommy’s Box” is co-written by Greenlaw and Caitlin Scherer and co-stars Carly Brooke, Bill Sorvino, Kade Wise and Jennifer Doric. Music for the film is provided by Paulo Coelho. Greenlaw made his directorial debut with the 2012 documentary “Finding Francis” about a man’s search for joy in life after finding out it’ll soon be gone. He’s also acted in a handful of projects including “Plus-Plus,” “The Afterlife” and the short films “Dandelion” and “John’s Life Narrated by God.” He’s currently in pre-production for the drama “The Empty Handed Painter.”

Indie Rights will release “Mommy’s Box” in theaters and digital on September 30.”

Marks Papadatos from Digital Journal says, "Mommy's Box" is an exceptional motion picture. It was released in theaters and digital formats on Sept. 30 from Indie Rights.”

“Greenlaw takes on the lead role of New York music producer Nick who is battling his own demons and he find out about his unstable mom's death. When Nick returns to his Long Island home for the mom's wake, many of the family secrets unfold, and they intertwine well with the different story-lines. The film lives up to its tag-line where "the past is never where you left it.”

The fact that Greenlaw has left the idea of the "box" open to interpretation, makes it an even more compelling motion picture.

The Verdict

Mommy's Box garners an A rating. It is rich in symbolism and it will leave the viewer drenched in a wide spectrum of raw emotions. Anybody who is from New York, especially Long Island, will find this movie relatable. It is filled with wit, mystery, suspense and the acting is superb. It was worthy of all the awards and accolades it received at the 2016 Long Island International Film Expo for "Best Film," "Best Music Score" and "Best Original Song in a Feature Film." The Manhattan Film Festival got it right when they named it "Best Feature Film" of 2016.”

Benjamin Poole from The Movie Waffler says, “Johnny Greenlaw’s movie is an intelligent, convincing and human drama. Open Mommy’s Box and you’ll find a true film by a real film maker.

“The production values of his film are gorgeous too; the deep colors and widescreen photography ambitiously present the drama with more visual panache and care than most Hollywood equivalents. Paul Coelho’s soundtrack is marvelous, and even the suits that various characters don are stunning (how often does one comment upon the costumes of a kickstarted indie?). Open Mommy’s Box and you’ll find a true film by a real film maker.”

A man’s campaign to reduce his blood pressure and eliminate the stresses from his life includes murder.

After suffering a violent heart attack, Bill is advised by his doctor to lower his blood pressure by eliminating the stresses from his life. Taking his doctor's advice literally, Bill starts killing everyday people who irritate him with poisoned darts. The killings lower Bill’s blood pressure for a while but attract the attention of Detective Jordan, an enigmatic cop who plays a strange cat and mouse game with Bill as he tries to decide whether he should arrest him or join him in his campaign.

As the cop begins to make Bill's life a living hell, stresses closer to home ramp up his blood pressure, and Bill puts his best friend Stan’s ex-wife on his hit list. Convinced that their friendship won’t last until Stan’s ex- is dead, the two men concoct a plan to get rid of her that will look like a heart attack.

Although they get away with the murder, anomalies in the forensic report suggest that the ex- was poisoned. Suspecting a connection between the “Dartman” and the poisoned woman, Detective Jordan manufactures a crazy scheme to flush Bill out as the killer he’s looking for.

With his blood pressure at an all-time high, Bill is forced to endure Jordan’s insanity as he works to extract himself and Stan from the investigation. Now targeting his own wife and her lover, Bill takes drastic measures to derail Jordan, stay out of jail, and maintain both his physical and mental health.

Bill’s calculated attempt to frame another man for the dart killings forces detective Jordan to face the truth and confront his own demons.

SilverSpringTherapy.com to Provide Holistic, Evidence Based Counseling in Maryland

 

Silver Spring Therapy launches an innovative, collaborative effort with local holistic, evidence-based therapist agencies in Silver Spring, MD.  

    

Silver Spring, MD - In a first of its kind undertaking, the Sun Point Wellness Center and SilverSpringTherapy.com are pleased to announce a partnership plan with holistic agencies in Maryland and Washington DC.  Their shared goal is to provide holistic therapy and evidence-based workshops for organizations in the 20910-zip code, including much of the D.C. area.  

The Sun Point Wellness Center utilizes the integration of clinical therapy, specific patient values, and proven research evidence into the decision making process for patient care and counseling.  They will work with The Latin American Youth Center (LAYC) whose mission is to empower youth to achieve a successful transition to adulthood through supportive multi-cultural, comprehensive, and innovative programs to employ these practices.

Laura Morse, Executive Director and Holistic Therapist, said this about the Latin American Youth Center, “We plan to help young people transition from child to adult in a way that addresses today’s social, economic, academic, and career needs.  We are very pleased to be a partner with this great LAYC in this effort.”

Along with Morse is therapist Daniel Abzug, the clinical director of the center.  Abzug specializes in working with adolescents and adults with co-occurring disorders as well as depression, mental disorders, phobias, childhood trauma, and addiction.   He will be offering evidence-based mindfulness workshops in the community on a monthly basis.

“Research shows that learning mindfulness techniques can help students improve their quality of living, both inside and outside of school, by being better able to cope with the various stressors of day-to-day life,” said Abzug.

These “evidence based” techniques are designed to help individuals control impulsive behavior and guide them to better decision-making.  These two elements have been tied to criminal behaviors and incarceration, so treating them at the source is the goal of the partnership.

“The more organizations and students we can help, the better,” said Morse.

Sun Point Wellness Center has plans to expand their workshop offerings, and is accepting new clients in the Silver Spring (20910) area who are seeking effective counseling to improve their relationships, mental health and self esteem. Interested individuals, families, and organizations can reach out to find services that meet their needs at http://www.silverspringtherapy.com

The Nightfall Horror Series Expands To Virtual Reality

With virtual reality technology on the rise, one game, Nightfall: Eclipse, is experimenting with the nascent field, producing horrifyingly realistic results.

September 26, 2016 – With over forty-three million current users, a number expected to quadruple in two years, the field of virtuality is on the rise. As a result, all sorts of applications are spawning. Everything from remote surgery through virtual emulation to engineering virtual prototypes is getting a little buzz out of the budding technology. The core push behind each of these applications is achievement of sensory immersion, a quality that current virtual reality games throw in for novelty. Nightfall: Eclipse by Zeenoh is here to expand on that concept. The ability of a horror game to at least partially suspend suspicion of disbelief is essential to creating a truly frightening game. This is where Nightfall: Eclipse fills its niche. It will be release as DLC of Nightfall: Escape on Steam and as standalone game in Oculus, expanding the game be virtual reality compatible, allowing an unprecedented level of immersion and a truly high-end scare.

Current fans will know Nightfall: Eclipse is the perfect game for this virtual reality augmentation. The plotline revolves around the inquiries of journalist Rianne Gonzales and her team as she visits the mansion explored by Nightfall: Escape protagonist Ara Cruz. Inside are the monstrosities of Filipino folklore, one of those is the Tiyanak, a class of limbo-bound, human-consuming, hell babies. Through the enhancements of virtual reality, users will be able to see, experience, and understand the fates of each of Rianne’s crew members. And with the unique source of Filipino folklore fueling the game’s scares, players are sure to be treated to scares never before seen in the West.

Aside from uniqueness and authenticity, the Nightfall franchise places an emphasis on quality and depth of their scares. Through the game’s incorporated technology and graphic design, it is able to hit on all three of Stephen King’s types of horror: “The gross-out”, outright “horror”, and subtly creepy “terror”. The unapologetic and gory graphics alone successfully ‘gross-out’ any onlooker. The outright disturbing horror is provided by inherently frightening folklore, attackers, and monsters. And unnerving terror is achieved through the creaking and tense ambiance provided by virtual reality, which is complimented by the unsettling nature of feeling immersed in the game. Additionally, Nightfall: Eclipse will be the first of its kind, being the first and only Philippine-made, virtual reality, horror game. These qualities of technology enhancement, authenticity, and depth make Nightfall: Eclipse one of the best indie horror games around.

Nightfall: Eclipse is scheduled to be released this October of 2016 on Steam and Oculus Experience.
