U Never Listen

Shot half in Venice Beach and half in a Brighton underpass, U Never Listen is set in a Halloween costume party. There's nothing to worry about until when the booze runs out, but then someone gets a disturbing call from Los Angeles. Who's going to end up having the Halloween Night from Hell? Brighton horror icon Billy Chainsaw stars in this LA-themed pitch black 21st century take on one of the world's most-loved children's stories.

U Never Listen was selected by LA's Hollywood Horror Film Festival, Fear International Horror Film Genre Awards, Out of the Can International Film Festival, Fake Flesh Film Fest, HHF 48 Hour Film and Horror Short, and the 11th Underground Cinema Film Festival. It was also voted a semi-finalist by Hollywood Screenings Film Festival and Irish International Film Festival.

Director Biography - Nina Romain

Nina Romain is living proof that small children shouldn't be taken trick or treating in darkest Alabama as tiny sugared-up ghouls – they grow up writing and producing horror shorts obsessed with the creepier side of Halloween! Her 10 horror shorts are shot half in the seedier side of Los Angeles and half in the darker side of the UK, and have screened or been selected by over 50 film fests globally.

After over 10 years' experience in front of and behind the camera, she's written, produced and sometimes directed horror shorts in locations as varied as Brighton underpasses, haunted forests, and deserted zoos in Los Angeles. Her shorts have been selected by a total of 50 international film fests, including Upstate NY Horror Film Festival, the Hollywood Horror Film Festival, and Hollywood Screenings Film Festival, and regularly screens at the UK's largest independent horror festival, Horror-on-Sea.

Her feature work includes working as AD and continuity for films including FrightFest's UK horror-comedy "Are We Dead Yet?" and Raindance-screened "Love Possibly". She's worked as a camera assistant for the US reality show "The Amazing Race". She also is a script reviewer for Women in Horror Film Festival as well as London Short Film festival. She does film PR and BTS photography, is a horror voiceover artist, and blogs for Raindance, US horror site Morbidly Beautiful and Digital Dead.
