John has a new concept poster on his blog and is taking comments on which one looks better. Head over to the Heumoore blog and leave your vote.

The Longevity Secret

"According to the Bible, ancient people lived not just several decades, but several centuries. Could it be the secret to amazing longevity is about to be rediscovered? Might the quest to uncover the remains of an ancient wooden ship high atop Mount Ararat hold the key? Could this ship be Noah’s Ark ? Find out, in The Longevity Secret."

I must say that I'm intrigued after watching the trailer. They raise lots of questions that would be interesting to hear their answers. I'm not sure what to think yet.

Watch the trailer to this film here. I found out about this film from this website.

Like Dandilion Dust

Based on the book by the same title, comes a new film from Downes Brothers Entertainment.

The Downes Brothers are the team behind "The Moment After" series, and a have helped Christiano with several of his films. Be sure to check out the movie website and especially the blog.

THE STORY
Jack and Molly Campbell have everything in their small hometown outside West Palm Beach, Florida: Great house in a fancy neighborhood, high-paying job, and a beautiful little 4-year-old adopted boy, Joey. Until it's discovered that Joey's birth mother forged the signature of Joey's birth father, so the adoption was a fraud and Joeys biological father has been released from prison and is ready to start life over with his son.

When a judge rules that Joey must be returned to his father, Joey is suddenly thrust into a volatile household of people he's never met and, a father who doesn't know how to show love without violence. The Campbells, in a silent haze of grief and utter disbelief, watch their son pick a dandelion and blow the feathery seeds into the wind.

Struggling with the dilemma of following the law, their hearts, and what they know to be morally right, the Campbells find that desperation leads to dangerous thoughts. What if they devise a plan? Take Joey and simply disappear.... LIKE DANDELION DUST.
