Don Dohler Film Strip

Independent filmmaker Don Dohler was a pioneer in the field of DIY movie making. With his backyard-grown horror and sci-fi films, he inspired and mentored countless others in the entertainment industry – many up and comers, and even a few that have gone on to make a big name for themselves in the business. In total he produced and directed 11 features, and was the publisher of numerous entertainment industry-related books and magazines. He passed away at the age of 60 in 2006. This site is dedicated to his memory, and to honor that we at Smash or Trash are giving away a copy of DEAD HUNT (his last horror movie) and the award-winning BLOOD, BOOBS,& BEAST (the documentary on his life and movie career).

Contest starts October 31st, 2009 – Contest ends November 15th, 2009

Winners will be announced on the Smash or Trash site and will also be contacted by email.
