Dinosaur Valley Girls
In 1991, the author was presented with what he thought was the opportunity of a lifetime: a chance to write and direct his own movie. He was determined to make it a step above the normal low-budget fare, including special effects and an original soundtrack. Little did he realize that it would take five years, a mortgage on his house, a myriad of headaches, and enough stories to fill a book before Dinosaur Valley Girls would debut. Go behind-the-scenes to find out what it is like to make a low-budget flick in Hollywood. A tight budget, temperamental actors and actresses, scheduling difficulties, an aggravated lizard-these are just a few of the problems the author faced and overcame. The film is a commercial success and a sequel is underway.
