Tie Die
When a series of mangled bodies begin appearing in the park, Ranger Jones (Lloyd Kaufman, President of Troma Entertainment and creator of the Toxic Avenger) and a state trooper (Joe Bob Briggs, Shudder’s The Last Drive In) are baffled by the attacks. It’s been a long time since a black bear has gone rabid in the park and never to this degree. The timing couldn’t be worse as the area is filling up with young musicians, hippies, and earth children. Can they stop the killings before things get worse, or will Ranger Jones miss the encore?
Featuring an onslaught for the senses with psychedelic oscilloscopes, one of a kind practical effects, and musical performances by DEALAIN (J.B. Tenney), TIE DIE ensures to leave you as breathless as the dead!

Morgan Miller started making his own films and editing them when he was a child. Since then, he has over 20 years of professional experience directing and editing award winning films; anything from documentaries, commercials, music videos, to narrative or educational videos. Miller has shot his films across 4 different continents (Europe, North and South America and New Zealand) and has just completed his first narrative feature film with TIE DIE.
The idea for Tie Die began as a child, when my father told me, "Son, if you ever kill someone, make sure you're wearing a tie dye shirt, so the blood blends in."
