Be part of a once-in-a-lifetime experience!

Something you can proudly say, “I helped bring that to life!”

A film like no other, exposing the true horrors that surround us, yet giving you the satisfaction, you wish would happen in the real world. Help our team bring you pure psychological rawness at its best or shall we say worse…

Synopsis:

Lilith Simmons was brought up into this world to be a strong-spirited young woman, from a loving home with a devoted mother; Rebecca, a father who never gave up; Kenneth, and a sister who always had her back, Carmen. Until the world revealed the true horrors that live right under our noses… a world full of liars, murderers, rapists…

Lilith’s world fell apart because of the same perpetrator over the years and a broken justice system that failed her time and time again. Pushing her to become a monster on the loose, targeting the real-world predators that lurk in the shadows of our society, and making them her prey. Each crime scene is more gruesome than the next, luring law enforcement into a bloody web of their own design.

The Impact we desire to make!

This film is not just another slasher with no meaning, only for pure entertainment. The Effects of Her Nerium has a message. One we want to scream aloud and pry people’s minds open to the reality that lives around us.

We want to also raise awareness of several organizations, such as:

  • RAINN: Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network.
  • THE DOE NETWORK: International Center for Unidentified and Missing Persons.
  • ANTI-PREDATOR PROJECT.ORG
  • MISSING KIDS.ORG
  • WOUNDED WARRIOR PROJECT.
  • SAVE.ORG: Suicide Awareness Prevention.

ABOUT US!

The Effects of Her Nerium was written by F.R. Diaz. A new upcoming horror/crime fiction/ thriller author. Diaz’s debut novel caused a mixture of emotions in every reader it reached. She came in strong and unapologetic into the writing world, wanting to make a great impact, and accomplishing it.

“Lilith is the rabid dog we all have inside us. I wanted my readers to see themselves in Lilith, and understand we all carry a darkness we want to unleash, and with TEOHN I’m giving them that release. And hopefully, we give our audience an even bigger satisfaction when, with your help, we bring her to life.”

Real reviews by a few readers from Good Reads:

  • *FIVE STARS*- “The Effects of Her Nerium is a wild and gritty ride, traveling to the darkest depths to seek vengeance in unimaginable ways.”
  • *FIVE STARS* – “From the ashes of despair, monsters are born, and hope perishes, leaving faith unknown. – F.R. Diaz. A very powerful quote that invokes the mindset for one of the best, gruesome revenge stories I’ve read in a long time. Lilith has easily become one of my favorite, raw, passionate anti-heroes.”
  • *FIVE STARS* – “Absolutely Phenomenal! I can’t express the joy and heartache I had reading this novel. In two days, I fell in love with Lilith and everything she stands for. I fell in love with her motivations and her resolve. The storyline is phenomenal and heartbreaking at the same time.”
  • *FIVE STARS* – “When a work of fiction, from a young, first-time author, can throat-punch you and remind you that bad things happen and there are characters like Lilith Simmons to deliver justice you know you’ve picked up the right book. Diaz delivers a tour de force with this novel!”
  • *FIVE STARS* – “This novel is a wild ride: emotional and brutal. Lilith is a vicious serial killer, but we can see how her experiences have shaped her into what she has become.”

NOW, the award-winning director, Jean Nasser wants to bring Lilith to life! Nominated for NBC Emerging Director Program 2018. He obtained his first milestone as a filmmaker at 14-years-old shooting only with a smartphone. With 8 shorts & 12 awards under his sleeve, he’s more than ready to embark on his first feature film.

“WITH EVERY PROJECT I’VE DONE, I’VE ALWAYS DELVED INTO THE IDEA OF BATTLING YOUR DEMONS. THIS TIME, I WANNA SHOWCASE WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU LET THEM WIN.” – Jean Nasser

“As a director, I want to bring that to life. I want to offer the audience a close look into PTSD through the eyes of grief, and her struggles to become your own.  I want people to fear the same demons that haunted Lilith and made her become who she ended up being by vividly representing her psychological battle and showcasing what’s on her mind at all times. I’ve always told myself: ‘The darker the better.’ Why not apply that same approach to my cinematography? Bringing TEOHN to life is going be a wild ride I want each of you to experience.”

“LET PAIN DO ITS SHIT AND ART MAKE A MESS OF IT.” – Co-producer, editor & SFX makeup artist- Jude C.C.

Our talented make-up artist is going to make sure the carnage is shown!

“As a producer, I know what it takes to bring a project to life. For that to happen we need someone to believe in us and give us a hand. We can’t do it alone. Lilith deserves to be heard. In the end that’s what she and so many in the real world are fighting for: justice and a chance to prove the system wrong. Help us give a voice to just a handful of all the victims in this world. We are counting on you!”

Jude CC has been creating SFX Makeup in a variety of projects since 2014. She has also edited & color-graded a numerable of films, web series & shorts. She can’t wait to bring to life the gruesome crime scenes & gore in this, her first feature-length.
