When beautiful young actress Lisa Small (Kristen Kerr of David Lynch’s "INLAND EMPIRE") is cast as the tragic victim known as The Black Dahlia in a film about Hollywood's most famous unsolved murder, an entire dreamworld awakens around her. Meanwhile, a local sociopath has set out on a copycat murder spree timed out with the 60th anniversary of the original killing. A spider's web grows around Lisa as her nightmares and desires intersect with the death toll rising around her. She delves deeper into the film script while the killer sets his target on her. Ultimately, she must live out the last days of The Black Dahlia.

"Intoxicating and sensual." (-Rue Morgue)
"Sexy, erotic, and visionary." (-Cinephelia)

THE DEVIL'S MUSE began production prior to other recent Black Dahlia films. Those films have come and gone as this one has consistently grown its following and cult status. Rue Morgue called THE DEVIL'S MUSE "far better than De Palma's disappointing interpretation."

The film stars Kristen Kerr ("INLAND EMPIRE," "FLIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD"), Gidget Gein (MARILYN MANSON), Mark Borchardt ("AMERICAN MOVIE"), Abby Travis (KMFDM, THE BANGLES), Cinque Lee ("MYSTERY TRAIN," "COFFEE & CIGARETTES"), Dame Darcy (creator of "MEATCAKE" comic book), Masuimi Max (world-famous fetish and pinup model and actress), Julie Strain ("HEAVY METAL 2000"), Lloyd Kaufman (POULTRYGEIST, THE TOXIC AVENGER), Caveh Zahedi ("WAKING LIFE," "I AM A SEX ADDICT") and features new music from MY RUIN, DUB GABRIEL, ABBY TRAVIS, DJAM KARET, and EGO PLUM. Director of Photography was Neal Fredericks ("THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT") and the film is dedicated to his memory. The score was composed by David J (BAUHAUS, LOVE AND ROCKETS).

Halo-8 Entertainment (www.halo8.tv) is a Hollywood-2.0 movie studio using bleeding-edge strategies to create and distribute daring new films. Recent releases include the controversial documentary YOUR MOMMY KILLS ANIMALS (which Variety called "a miraculously evenhanded treatment of a snarlingly divisive debate"), the award-winning hardcore-punk thriller THREAT (which Urb Magazine said "makes KIDS look like an after-school special"), and the legendary NY hardcore documentary N.Y.H.C. (which Cinematical called "smashing... a terrific, well-told, engaging story"). Current productions include the campy horror-game SLUMBER PARTY SLAUGHTERHOUSE: THE GAME (starring Tiffany Shepis, Joanna Angel, Melissa Bacelar, Masuimi Max) and the animated film GODKILLER (which Comic Box called "an iconoclastic hero's journey like none before it").
