Inglewood, CA, Aug 04, 2019 -- Noted actress Vida Ghaffari is nominated for Best Actress, Supernatural Thriller at the 7th annual Los Angeles Nollywood Film Awards (LANFA). This film was written and directed by multi award-winning filmmaker Dustin Ferguson (Nemesis 5: The New Model) and Vida played the role of the plucky Dispatcher Noel Johnson opposite Dawna Lee Heising (Samurai Cop 2: Deadly Vengeance) and Alax Maxson (King Ghidorah in Godzilla: King of The Monsters) plays the beast.
In this film, a small coastal town is terrorized by the legendary "Blood Beast," a horrific, mythical creature that returns during the cycle of the Harvest Moon that garners sacrifices in exchange for protecting the secluded town. D.T. Carney, Mike Ferguson and AVN Award Winner Alana Evans round out the cast.
This film had it's world premiere this past May on WGUD-TV in Pascagoula, Mississippi during their popular "After Hours Cinema" programming, which is hosted by Lee Turner. A limited edition VHS edition from Nemesis Video (who previously released Ferguson's "Blood Claws" and "Shockumentary") will be dropping, following by a streaming release through Troma Now (The Toxic Avenger). DVD details are still under wraps at the moment.
