Director Statement

I want to create films that satisfy the world's hunger for quality entertainment. As a kid, watching "The Twilight Zone" left me with nothing but a massive curiosity about the world and an insatiable need to create thought-provoking films. I graduated film school unsatisfied with the quality of content that has overtaken humanity. Endlessly scrolling videos becoming increasingly more obscure and strange as the algorithm tries to map out your brain. Let's take a break from it all, reset your attention span, and be entertained for several minutes. While this film is only my first, it's certainly not the best to come.

"On The House" is a simple watch containing intricate details, designed to give you a rush of dopamine when the story clicks and you make sense of it all.
