CASTING CALL of CTHULHU: Go behind the scenes and follow the intriguing process of a film’s genesis. Michelle played a small but fabulous role in this comedy/horror short film which debuted in Rio, Brazil at the juried ‘RioFan 2008′ Film Fest. The film presents brilliant writer/director Joseph Nanni’s hilarious vignette of what strange characters you might expect at an open casting audition for a horror film based on the works of H.P. Lovecraft. Click here ‘Casting Call of Cthulhu’ to view, and be prepared to laugh with fear!
