“QUESTIONING THE ANSWERS: A STORY OF SETH IN JEOPARDY!”
What is a trained winner?!
Seth Alcorn has been accepted to play on America’s most famous trivia game show. Seth is pretty good at trivia, but the Game Show Network isn’t taking any chances. In an effort to boost sagging ratings, the Network enrolls Seth to the Game Show Institute, an academy designed to build super-contestants for TV game shows. This documentary follows the Institute’s crack team of trivia specialists, physical-agility trainers, and image consultants in their attempt to whip the overwhelmed contestant in to game show shape. However, Seth isn’t so easily influenced and hilarity ensues as the over-zealous team tries to get Seth to be the trivia dynamo they think he can be.

“THE MAKING OF RIVERMAN”
The documentary is safe…
Riverman is an upcoming horror film by Associated Films. The movie has exciting action, terrifying horror, unexpected plot twists, and unparalleled suspense. However, even more intriguing than the movie itself, is how the movie was made.
The Making of Riverman follows actor/producer Ralph Apel in the making of his horrific dream… his attempt to bring Riverman to “life.” Throughout the documentary, Apel encounters many obstacles to overcome: artistic differences with the Musician (Dan Downing), difficulties in casting, and the apparent disinterest of the director.
