About the Writer/Director
Edwin Dennis began working in film and video over thirty years ago. However, his interest in filmmaking goes back even further, back to the days when he and his brother would experiment with their father’s 8mm silent camera. Animating G.I. Joe, and staging Drama’s, they would take turns in front of and behind the camera. From there his interest moved into still photography, but there was always something lacking; “I just couldn’t tell the stories I wanted to tell.” To fulfill this nagging desire he realized he would have to utilize sound, color, and the moving image.
Red Carpet Event for the movie The Evil Inside Her.
“The Evil Inside Her” stars Eric Roberts and was shot in Brevard and Rosman, NC by SuttleFilm. Actor Eric Roberts is a Golden Globe and Academy Award Nominee with more than 400 credits, including Raggedy Man (1981), The Pope of Greenwich Village (1984), National Security (2003), The Dark Knight (2008), and Inherent Vice (2014). “I live for playing bad guys,” Eric states, “But I don’t play my characters as bad guys because they don’t see themselves like that. If they have to do something wrong, it’s because they have an important reason to do it.” “The Evil Inside Her” will be available for rent and purchase this summer on all major digital platforms including Amazon, TubiTV, ITunes, Comcast, Googleplay, Xfinity, Sony Playstation Store, Microsoft Store and other platforms throughout North America.
