The story of "The Orphanage" isn't location specific and can be
filmed just about anywhere in the United States. However, each of
the characters have code names with some kind of connection to
the American South. The unique architecture and landscape of the
greater New Orleans area will give the movie an energy and
character that cannot be found elsewhere.

TEXTING KANDACE
Directed by Richard Poche
Written by Vicky L. Neal
Short film done as an homage to the 1979 horror classic "When A Stranger Calls"
which itself was a riff on the urban legend of "the babysitter and the man upstairs."
The story dates back to at least the 1960s and involves a teenage babysitter who
receives ominous calls from a man who wants her to "check the children."

| previous work Below are a pair of micro-budget shorts completed within the past year. |
Twenty years ago, four young girls were plucked from
an orphanage by a mysterious businessman who called
himself the Puppeteer. Presenting himself as the man
who “pulls the strings,” the Puppeteer brainwashes and
grooms the girls into becoming cold hearted assassins
to do his bidding. Their past is erased, they are given
new code names, and are versed in the Code. The Code
is to follow the orders of the Puppeteer until the day he
dies. And if the Code is broken, the consequences will
be deadly...
But one day, Cowgirl decides to leave the corral.
After being assigned to kill a man with a small child,
Cowgirl suffers a flashback of the repressed memories
of her past. Not wanting to leave the child an orphan
like herself, Cowgirl backs out of the hit...and breaks
the Code.
Cowgirl goes about rediscovering-and reclaiming the
life she’s lost. But her fellow assassins are not going to
let her leave the ranch alive.
The Orphanage will be an action movie that lends
itself to a heavy metal beat- mixed in with a little jazz
and punk that will have the viewer rockin’ to its savage
tempo.
