The film went on to become a cult hit, frequently included on "Best of Indie Sci-Fi and Horror" lists to this day. Mario will serve as co-producer on the film's sequel, shooting this fall.

Next, he co-created the streaming anthology series DARK/WEB which was acquired by Amazon.

Director Statement

As an indie filmmaker, I’ve always tried to find ways to tell compelling stories on a limited (or non-existent budget).

I believe that one of the best ways to do that is by focusing; focusing on character (like two siblings looking for another moment with their father), focusing on the strange (like a weird little box that may or may not be communicating with the dead).

That was my goal with RED LIGHT GREEN LIGHT, to keep things simple, creepy and hopefully, compelling.

I hope you enjoy it.
