SYNOPSIS:

 

A Kung Fu Fable...

Johnny Dow struggles to make a living at his small town gas station by charging motorists to see the electric guitar used by his late father, a one-hit-rock and roll wonder. Legend has it, The Guitar, carved in the shape of a dragon's head, and was made in part from an ancient spear his father found in the crater of a shooting star. When Johnny's friend, Eddie, stumbles upon the other half of the spear he releases an ancient demon hungry for power and destruction. Mika, a beautiful Chinese warrior who holds the secret to fighting Eddie and his army of kung-fu, sugar-craving warriors, reveals to Johnny that the only way to stop the evil spirit is to use the first half of the spear - the dragon on Johnny's guitar! Together, Johnny and Mika set out to fight Eddie and his army, reunite the two halves of the spear, restore peace to the town, and - of course - save the world!

Sarah (Shepis) has come to the strict New Order convent in Italy to devote her life to the Lord. But instead of visions of heaven, she finds herself staring into the face of evil. A facade of faith masks a history of perversion and pain as the order’s dark history converges in a holy hell that threatens to consume her. “Nympha” is a stylish and disturbing chiller that explores the realm where madness and faith intersect.
