Nightmare on State Street: The future of La Cumbre Plaza
Irecently wrote a screenplay — unlike anything I’ve written before. It’s a comedy and a tragedy. It’s called “The Monster’s Son.”
In the 1930s, Universal Studios came up with three prominent Frankenstein movies. In 1931, Frankenstein came to the screen.

They have zero regard for human life. The unfortunate people who have witnessed the heads of their neighbors, friends and family stuck to posts, entire families wiped out to merely send a message, haven’t had their prayers answered.
Life in certain places in Mexico — if there is such a thing as hell, it has risen to Earth’s surface to pluck people into its bowels. Not unlike our
