Possibly the single most interesting contribution to noir horror/scifi epic Way Down in Chinatown has been made by actress and Anoku-Butoh expert, Nicol Razon. Casting Razon was most definitely a coup for WDiC producers, Eric Kochmer, Angel Corbin and Maria Olsen (both of MOnsterworks66) and Jonathan Haloossim (22Mm Productions).
Razon plays a denizen of the weird and wonderful world that is to be found way down beneath Chinatown, and the film gives her a much needed opportunity to showcase her stunning Anoku-Butoh dance skills. For those not in the know, Anoku-Butoh – Dance of Darkness – is the performance art dance style developed by the Japanese specifically to help them express their horror at the devastation caused by the atomic bombs that destroyed Hiroshima and Nagasaki during the Second World War.

The Way Down in Chinatown production team – being Eric Michael Kochmer, Jonathan Haloossim of 22Mm Productions and Angel Corbin and Maria Olsen, who co-own MOnsterworks66 – is extremely excited that James Cotton is now part of the WDiC cast.
Cotton plays Larry Fingers, the enigmatic piano player whose menacing presence – hidden behind a hat and dark glasses – will haunt the entire picture.
Cotton is the owner and creative director of The Lionfish Group (www.lionfishgroup.com), a full service production company, and also has audio, video and directing experience.
He does, in fact, have more than 30 years experience composing music for film, and it should therefore also come as no surprise that he will also be in charge of creating the soundtrack for the unique noir thriller that is Kochmer’s Way Down in Chinatown.
While racking up the credits as writer, director, producer, editor, casting director and production manager,...

Angel Corbin is having a busy – and highly productive – week. Not only will her first feature film, DisOrientation, have its world premiere screening at Grauman’s Chinese Theater on Hollywood Boulevard as part of the prestigious Dances With Films Film Festival this Saturday, she will, on Sunday, be accepting pitches from aspiring screenwriters at The Great American PitchFest on behalf of MOnsterworks66, the fledgling production company of which she is co-owner.
As if a Hollywood premiere and an appearance at PitchFest wasn’t enough, this incredibly busy actress/producer has also just landed a pivotal supporting role in Eric Michael Kochmer’s Lynchian noir feature Way Down in Chinatown. As the cherry on the top, she has also been named Producer on the project, along with Jonathan Haloossim of 22Mm Productions and Maria Olsen, Corbin’s partner-in-crime at MOnsterworks66.

Way Down In Chinatown Exclusive Casting Announcement
Nancy Wolfe (Susan Atkins/Sexy Sadie from Helter Skelter) joins the cast of Way Down In Chinatown
The Way Down in Chinatown production team – being independent filmmaker Eric Michael Kochmer, Angel Corbin, Maria Olsen and Jonathan Haloossim - are thrilled to welcome Nancy Wolfe of Helter Skelter fame to the cast. Wolfe has bagged the supporting role of Lindie in Way Down in Chinatown, the utterly creepy and surprisingly intense noir horror feature that will soon be unleashed on horror fans.
Wolfe caused major waves in horror / serial killer movie circles with her eerily terrifying portrayal of Susan Atkins “Sexy Sadie” in the 1976 made-for-television movie Helter Skelter, which tells the story of the gruesome Los Angeles murders masterminded by Charles Manson. Neither the Tate/Labianca murders nor Manson himself is ever out of public consciousness for long, nor should Wolfe’s portrayal of Atkins,...
