The film will be shot entirely in the state of Michigan and takes place between Memorial Day and the Fourth of July, 1976. D.J.Perry's Detective Kendall is called in to investigate the local Klan's involvement in a murder. The film claims to be "inspired by true events".
Additions to the cast include: Rae'Ven Larrymore Kelly, who played Lisa in the Buffy episode "The Body", and either Tyler Mane (Sabertooth from X-men) or Ernie Hudson, formerly Detective Ridley of Desperate Housewives, will play Nate Wallace. There seems to be some uncertainty as to which.
About a TV evangelist confronted with a choice: to take one last chance at regaining the spotlight, or to sacrifice fame and save his wife (O'Connor) and daughter (Cherami Leigh). O'Connor will play Maurene Wells, a romance-novel-reading mom of a Goth 15-year-old. She and her husband Adam, played by Todd Terry, were childhood sweethearts who married over her father's objections. Barry Corbin (the ex-astronaut from Northern Exposure) is Sheriff Burns.

BTFS has been turned into a novel by Bodie
Thoene (pronounced Tay-nee). It is available
in audio, ebook, and paperback formats. The Thoenes have written quite a few books of "historical
christian fiction".
Beyond the Farthest Star was the title of the first animated episode of Star Trek, and it was also
the name of a novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Both of those are very good and totally unrelated to the
film with Renée O'Connor.

Nicole Brooks (formerly known as DeAnna N.J. Brooks), and Iris Sura O'Connor. J. Nicole Brooks is is a member of the LOOKINGGLASS THEATRE COMPANY Ensemble in Chicago.
The film is about Elizabeth, someone who has a perfect life and a perfect daughter, until events make her perfect life unravel rather quickly. ROC VIDEO CHANNEL in November has behind the scenes video of INFINITY, in which preparations are made for a scene with O'Connor in a sickbed. Mention is made of another scene that has something to do with the garden of Eden. Apparently there is a twist at the end. The film is at least partially about Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.
Release date: 5 April 2011 - DVD
Formerly "Fitful". In this film, Paula is an inspector for the Historic Trust who visits an abandoned ship. She meets the self-appointed caretaker, Vigs (Larry Joe Campbell), who had made the application for historical status. Moments after her arrival, her car is disabled and she is stuck, leading to a sleepless night of bad dreams and creepy reality. The Bihlman Bros. song "Angel Wings" is featured in the movie.
Co-starring Larry Joe
Campbell, with Grant R. Krause and Nate Mitchell. Directed by Rich Brauer.
StarScoop has an interview with O'Connor about DEADRISE, and the Traverse City Record-Eagle has an article about the film.
O'Connor has a shower scene. The remarkable thing is that up till now, she has never had a shower scene in any of her films. (There are a couple of short films I haven't seen, so I could be wrong.)
Barry Bostwick (Brad Majors in "The Rocky Horror Picture Show", Mayor Winston in "Spin City") is Ahab in
The Asylum's version of Moby Dick. In
the modern adaptation of Herman Melville's novel, Ahab captains a hi-tech submarine, and pursues the
enormous prehistoric whale that maimed him. Also starring Adam Grimes (Lobster Boy in one episode of
Buffy, and Dr. Klye Julian in General Hospital Night Shift) as Starbuck and Michael Teh as
Queequeg. Directed by Trey Stokes.

Explaining the appearance of ARK episodes on HULU, Trey Stokes told AUSXIP: "Syfy and hulu are both affiliated with NBC/universal, so this came about as a result of the syfy "interest". It happened very fast, all within the past week." And further: "I just took over that long-dormant Ark page on YouTube, and the episodes will all show up there after we see how we fare on hulu. We might throw some other extras on there as well."
Nine episodes of the ARK webseries are now available online at SlashControl They are only available in the US as far as I can tell. Marc Hustvedt spoke with Gabe Sachs, Trey Stokes, Robbie Thompson, and Renée O'connor for Tubefilter about the series.
ROC stars in the Riverworldy drama, waking up offplanet after falling asleep on the couch. Marjo-Riikka Makela and Adam Cardon (Detective Anderson in Diamond Dawgs) co-star.
Composer Jon Vandergriff has posted the music for ARK online.
The scene below was posted on YouTube by nunsploitation. It contains Renee O'Connor, Lucy Lawless, and America Olivo.
This is supposed to be a spoof of "exploitation films". Problem is, I haven't seen any of those that I can recall, and the best reference point I have is Quentin Tarantino's movies, which are a bit too content-laden to be called exploitative. So I am not able to appreciate this thing much. The actors seem to be portraying people who can't act, with the notable exception of Minae Noji (General Hospital's Dr. Kelly Lee) as Kinki.
O'Connor's role is small, as is the role of Lucy Lawless. Michael Hurst, Kevin Sorbo, and Zoe Bell are also in the film.
Dorothy Snarker of AfterEllen.com has reviewed Bitch Slap. Itsjustmovies has seven clips, and there are behind-the-scenes video clips and promos
at AUSXIP.

O'Connor directed this short film in which she plays the sister of the main character. The
best roles she gets are those in films she herself produces. This film deals with the legal and social
consequences of honoring the final wishes of others. Tembe Locke (nurse) will be Veronica McFall in STATE
OF HATE (due out in 2012).
Tembi Locke, who plays a nurse in Words Unspoken and will be Veronica McFall in A STATE OF HATE, is now playing Grace Monroe on the SyFy Channel's EUREKA.
Also with Randy Crowder, Julian Moses, Andrew Pinon, Christopher Shaw, and Jed Sura.
A slightly confusing story of archaeologists, priests, an alien(?), and Iraq. O'Connor has good role in this one. One scene was lifted almost wholly from Raiders of the Lost Ark. Tommy Lister Jr. (Sgt. Major Gentry) was Klaang in BROKEN BOW, the two-part premiere episode of ST: ENTERPRISE.
Also with Tim DeKay, Amanda Crew, Carlos Leon, Bill Parks, Richard Gnolfo, Tommy Nohilly, and Vlado Mihailov.
Co-stars Helena Beaven, with Jed Sura, Raymond O'Connor, and Ted Raimi.
Main protagonist (Beaven) is getting tossed from the US by its Immigration Dept. She and her friend (ROC)
go to Vegas to get her married to a US citizen. Hilarity ensues. OK not the most original story line, but
it has its moments. The introductory scene, with Ashley rehearsing for some sort of Disney dance number
is one of them.
REVIEW
One episode (Season Three - Episode Fifteen) A Higher Power
Murders being made to look like suicide with an obscure psychological motive to be uncovered by the regular cast. ROC gives a good performance as the wife of one of the victims.
Also guest-starring in this episode: Blake Robbins, Myk Watford, Zakareth Ruben, Rod Britt, and Jennifer Aspen. (Aspen was Kendra Giardi on GLEE.)
In a mental institution, many of the patients and staff end up dead (Dr. Ryan gets killed). The killer
has obscure psychological motivations that eventually come to light, but seem to leave room for another
sequel. A sometimes interesting movie. Lucy Lawless was in the first Boogeyman film (2005). Michael Graziadei (Darren) is Daniel Romalotti on
DAYS OF OUR LIVES. Tobin Bell (Dr. Allen) was Marshall Errickson in FALSE IDENTITY. Danielle
Savre (Laura Porter) was Marcia Brady in the X-Files episode "Sunshine Days". Others in the cast
include Matt Cohen, Chrissy
Griffith, and Mae
Whitman.

This is such a great review of ALIEN APOCALYPSE by Obscurus Lupa (the name means Dark Lens) that it needs to be here. I mean, the review is better than the film.
The Syfy Channel makes few good movies, and this is not one of them, though Bruce Campbell is quite funny, and O'Connor gets to say very little and look pretty a lot.
Astronauts returning from a long trip find the earth occuppied by rather large termites. They also find the enslaved remnants of humanity somewhat demoralized. Campbell rallies the troops (as it were) and leads a successful insurgency. For the record, the square/cube law precludes termites of that size in this gravity. Peter Jason (President Demsky) was Alan Baird (uncredited) in MILK.
Others in the cast: Remington Franklin, Michael Cory Davis, Neda Sokolovska, Vladimir Kolev, Valentin Giasbeily, and Chavdar Simeonov as the alien leader.
Short film directed by Renée O'Connor (can be viewed on the Renée O'Connor Video Channel). This is really a one-woman show if you don't count the kids, about a single mom and her impending deployment to Iraq. Produced by Eric Escobar and Taura Musgrove.
Double Dare is a documentary about two stuntwomen, Jeannie Epper and Zöe Bell (Bell doubled Xena.) It includes interviews with Renée O'Connor.
Cast: Chris Dollard, Kristen Dollard, Renée O'Conner, Andy Pinon, Jed Sura, Steven Yell, Amy Yell.
Short film entered in the Anita Jessie 2003 Fall Film Festival. Produced by: Chris Dollard and Jed Sura. Directed, Written, and Edited by: Chris Dollard. Director of Photography: William White. 1st A.D.: Dawn Higginbotham.
Have not seen this. Don't know what it's about. Amy Yell was a waitress in DIAMONDS & GUNS
Sort of New Zealand's Twilight Zone, this series is worth watching. I would never have discovered it had ROC not done her 30 second cameo.
Tamati Rice (Jonathan), whose real name is Tamati Te Nehotu, was Raphael in 3 episodes of Xena, Vercinix and Garel in two others. His first film appearance was in The Piano (Pito). Sara Wiseman (Petra - seen talking to O'Connor in the above photos), was Hephates in the HERCULES episode "Once Upon a Future King". Her first acting role was as an unnamed woman in the XENA episode "Prometheus".
The complete Mataku series can be ordered from Shop New Zealand for US $53.80. Shipping is extra.
