Samera Entertainment is proud to point the spotlight at two fantastic features in the Vision Films library
LOS ANGELES, January 15, 2019 (Newswire.com) - Harley Wallen is an actor, writer, and director with an enduring passion for bringing stories to the screen. 2018 has brought no less than three of his films to the VOD scene. His persistence has paid off, giving him the opportunity to direct screen legends such as Tom Sizemore (SAVING PRIVATE RYAN, HEAT) John Savage (THE DEER HUNTER, THE THIN RED LINE), and cult figures such as Tara Reid (AMERICAN PIE), Richard Tyson (KINDERGARTEN COP) and Dennis Haskins (SAVED BY THE BELL).
Wallen is the director and star of BENNETT’S SONG, a family dramedy about a widower with seven adopted kids who meet a divorced dentist who also has seven adopted kids. Together, this large family adjusts to their new life and learn to accept the challenges that come with it. BENNETT’S SONG was written and co-executive produced by Wallen’s business partner, Nancy Oeswein and was acquired by acquisitions executive Sharry Flaherty of Samera Entertainment and released on DVD and VOD by Vision Films on Aug. 14, 2018. Due to its overwhelming success and great word of mouth, a sequel is already shooting! Also, you can stream BENNETT’S SONG right now with an Amazon Prime subscription.
Not to be outdone, Flaherty also acquired Wallen’s follow up, the darker toned BETRAYED starring John Savage as a Detroit mayor whose daughter is sent into human trafficking by a drug cartel after they push the Russian mafia out of town.
BETRAYED was written by Wallen, who also co-stars alongside T.J. Storm, Richard Tyson, and Billy Wirth. BETRAYED was released on DVD and VOD by Vision Films on Oct. 2, 2018. It is also available to stream via Amazon Prime. So definitely take the time to check it out.
