About Me


Independent moviemakers are poised for success in the mass media market. There is plenty of creativity and drive but one piece of the puzzle that is missing is a place for filmmakers to unite in an organized fashion.

The Dead Workers Party is that binding organization. Created by tireless part time burger-flipping, pencil-pushing movie makers, the DWP strives to provide the local talent with the personnel, equipment, and distribution to create movies on a scale unachievable by a typical independent group. Dead Workers unite!
