If anyone would be surprised that Adam Brooks became a filmmaker, it very well might be the man himself. With a background in graphic design and music, filmmaking wasn’t necessarily in his immediate mindset while he was living in eastern Iowa. But his inexperience in filmmaking and geography did little to deter Brooks from making a name for himself in Hollywood.
In 1998 he headed West with California in his sights and little more than $800 in his pocket. Working various industry jobs over the years helped Brooks establish himself as an indie filmmaking machine with credits including Writer, Producer, Director, Cinematographer, Storyboard Artist, Editor and Composer.
Now with Brooks’ first feature film, The Season, about to get its DVD release on June 29th, Dread Central spoke with him about his journey to getting his first feature film made and what the future holds for the talented writer/director/producer.

“How do you talk to women?” I would ask my friend. “With words,” he’d reply. I thought he was being an ass, but as it turns out, he was right. And that’s the funny thing about interpersonal relationships with the opposite sex. It’s the way we use words that may spell disaster for a relationship. In Knuckle Draggers, the dramedy from Alex Ranarivelo, we learn that ye olde story of love, life, sex and video games, can still engage and resonate with viewers. Even if we know the outcome from miles away.
Ethan (Ross McCall) has a problem. It’s called “life.” Dropping thousands upon thousands of dollars on a film school education, only to wind up a job you despise is not a very healthy existence. Ethan, still holding onto your his artistic ambitions has yet falter on his dreams. However, when a pampered and demanding...

Alessi, Amie Barsky, Danielle Nicolet, Justin Baldoni, Jennifer Alden, Omar Gooding Knuckle Draggers follows the story of a down on his luck emerging director named Ethan (Ross McCall). Even though Ethan's a great guy, his fiancée Heather (Jennifer Alden) leaves him because he is unable to provide her a swanky lifestyle similar to those of her friends. Set on winning Heather back, Eathan reaches out to his sexist older brother Kyle (Paul J. Alessi), a macho New Yorker who has his own unique philosophy on the dynamic of men and women. Disgusted by Kyle's chauvinist view on women, Ethan's female friends Patricia (Amie Barsky) and Renee (Danielle Nicolet) chime in to provide advice from the other side. As the story progresses Ethan is not the only one who is faced with questioning their relationships, and what it is they need from them.

Not Rated
As long as there have been movies, there have been movies about relationships. One of the very first films to play for an paying audience was The Kiss, which was a 47-second smooch made in 1896. It was quite controversial at the time.
Obviously, the form handles love in broader terms now, with romantic comedies and dramas of every stripe, and even the majority of action films have some love interest.
It does make the world go 'round, they say.
Working outside the mainstream, the adult romantic comedy Knuckle Draggers examines men and women, but mostly men. In particular, how men work in and out of relationships, how they deal with women, and how their attitudes can be shaped by their male friends.
