"THE COFFE KLASH" FILMS

Filmmaker Jana Mattioli Currently on movie set in New York City and filming this summers new upcoming Comedy film “The Coffee Klash” Taking some time to sit with us and letting us snap a quick picture while being ogled by onlookers. We caught up with Mattioli who has been on the set that revolves around a NYC Café by day & transformed into a movie set by night. With lots of spectators and film crews running around surrounded by many lights and cameras, Mattioli was able to talk with us for a moment as we were eagerly waiting to find out more about “The Coffee Klash” and what better way than being there right in the middle of the all action. Pleased to say we were able to find out so much more about this new Hilarious Comedic film.
Stephanie’s mother Gayle (Emmy Winner Blanche Baker) is anything but laid-back. Though she loves her daughter, she often expresses it the only way she knows how-by completely micromanaging her life. Which is why this particular afternoon at the coffee shop might be tricky. After all, Stephanie (Wynn Van Dusen) has brought her mother here not only to tell her she’s a lesbian, but to introduce Gayle to her new girlfriend, Mary Ann (Samantha Artese).It quickly becomes apparent that Gayle’s problem isn’t really with her daughter being a lesbian…she just wishes she were a slightly more interesting one-and she could start by having a funkier girlfriend. Mary Ann’s sexual orientation doesn’t bother Gayle, but the fact that she’s a middle school teacher who wears Banana Republic cardigans seems severely disappointing. Gayle’s reaction to her daughter’s news isn’t exactly a surprise, nor is it what her daughter expected. Enlisting the advice of the coffee shop staff, Gayle must come to terms with the afternoon’s events, and try to set aside her judgments…sort of. “The Coffee Klash” will be released and out early summer of 2011. Produced by Mattioli Productions, Kevin Feustel, Kelly Feustel, Robert & Joyce Bronnerman, Steve Wolf, Andy Gause, Heather Harris along with Dreamcatcher Theatreworks. The funny film's talented cast stars Emmy Award Winner Blanche Baker as Gayle, Wynn Van Dusen as Stephanie, Samantha Artese as Mary Ann, Keith Collins as Jamie and Steve Wolf as Chase with many more special appearances.”The Coffee Klash” is directed by Jana Mattioli & written by Talia Gonzalaz and Bisanne Masoud. We look forward to seeing “The Coffee Klash” this summer. Sounds like one comedy wild ride not to be missed!!

MOVIE SPOTLIGHT - "THE THIRD TESTAMENT"



THE THIRD TESTAMENT which will be released on DVD Tuesday, March 8th, 2011. In this nail-biting feature film debut from writer-director Matt Dallmann, the mysterious disappearance of a Christian missionary investigating the so-called "Third Testament" sets off a chain of events that lead to the stunning revelation of a dangerous religious doctrine suppressed for years behind a murderous cover-up. THE THIRD TESTAMENT follows the discovery of four lost gospels that are included in the canon of the bible as the third testament. Some believe the gospels are fake, while others believe their discovery will lead to the improvement of humanity. For one nonbeliever, it is the key to finding her husband, a documentary film maker gone missing after interviewing the archeologist who discovered the missing gospels.


“THE THIRD TESTAMENT” opens with documentary footage of an interview gone wrong: a man, who we later learn is the famous Phineas Black, viciously attacks his interviewer, then static and darkness.

Archived news reports light up the screen, telling the tale of a documentary filmmaker gone missing. Bit by bit, it is revealed that the missing filmmaker, Jacob Matthews, was interviewing Phineas Black in an effort to debunk his latest archeological discovery, The Third Testament to the Bible.

Through several interviews with professors, historians, and archeologists, we learn the history of the gospels that make up the Third Testament. And like the New Testament before it, this new edition to the canon of the Bible has changed religious doctrine held sacred by so many followers for so many years.

Carolyn, like her husband Jacob, does not believe in the legitimacy of the so-called Third Testament. She decides to confront the man responsible for her husband’s disappearance during visiting hours at his new home, the New Jersey State Prison.

Phineas, convicted of kidnapping and assault, with pending murder charges, sits across from Carolyn in a menacing way. They exchange barbs over faith and/or the lack of it. He challenges her beliefs as she sits unaffected.

Meanwhile, we learn through interviews with detectives, witnesses, friends and family that both Phineas and Carolyn had suffered great tragedies in life. Each had turned to opposite sides of the religious spectrum, Carolyn embracing it as a way to survive and Phineas denouncing it as a mind-controlling tool.

Determined to break Phineas of his silence on the whereabouts of her husband’s body, Carolyn continues to meet with him. Each time, Phineas drops subtle clues about an organization called The King’s Eight. The clues lead her deeper into Phineas’s life and his circle of friends. She discovers that all of the archeologists, historians, religious figures and financial donors that were involved with the discovery and implementation of the Third Testament are all somehow connected to this unknown group called The King’s Eight.

Each unveiling swings us in a new direction: Could the centuries old King’s Eight have fabricated the Third Testament? Did Jacob know? Was he a member? Despite it’s suspicious beginnings, is The Third Testament really a vehicle for the betterment of society?

We get our answers by the movie’s end. Against her instincts, Carolyn develops a fondness for Phineas… and makes a startling discovery. THE THIRD TESTAMENT Released by Magdaline Pictures will be available on DVD March 8th, 2011 for more info please log onto www.ThirdTestamentTheMovie.com

"No Clean Break" had its official premier on Koldcast TV on January 25th,2011. The series is also available on Blip TV, Boxee, Flingo & Roku. New episodes will be released every Tuesday for the next 20 weeks.

"No Clean Break" is an action crime drama online series, shot like a comic
book come to life. Frank, an introverted hit man whose preferred method of murder is
poisoning his victim’s drinks is enlisted to carry out an unusual job. When the city’s crime boss, known only as “The Man”, discovers that he’s terminally ill, he hires Frank to carry out his own assassination. “The Man”, however, is selfish and jealous, and doesn’t want to die alone, and makes it clear to Frank that he is to take out the woman he loves in addition to himself. When Frank discovers that The Woman is his own long lost lover, Frank alters the job making himself the next mark. In an action-packed chain of character-driven events, riddled with dark humor and visual spectacle, Frank and The Woman take on the many enemies set out before them before they can free themselves from The Man’s jealous grip. “No Clean Break” Stars: Frank Krueger, Sarah Thompson (Angel, 7th Heaven), Chad Everett(Mulholland Drive, Medical Center), Michael Madsen (Reservoir Dogs, Free Willy,Species), Mackenzie Firgens (Groove, Rent, The Hamiltons), David Carradine (Kill Bill, Kung Fu), Charles Durning (Dog Day Afternoon, Tootsie, O Brother, Where Art Thou?)Matthew Jone(General Hospital), James Russo (Donnie Brasco, The Ninth Gate,Public Enemies) and Xin Sarith Wuku.
