- A drifter of a small storefront church's congregation stumbles across a large insect last seen before Christ and emerging en masse to render a new plague upon the world.
- A disgruntled veteran unable to adjust back into society justifies domestic terrorism by interpreting his actions with alien invasion.
- An adaptation of the 1886 musical "Alice in Wonderland: A Dream Play for Children" by Henry Saville Clark and Walter Slaughter. Sculptures, drawings, text, and original music are used to explore the late 19th century's evolution of painting, literature, and theatre into early photography and moving pictures. The film examines the relationship between John Ruskin and Lewis Carroll, Ruskin's theories on drawing, Thomas Eakins' painting and use of photography, and the beginning of cinema with Eadweard Muybridge and Etienne-Jules Marey.
- Thousands of years into future, through eyes of an alien life form, we see fossilized beings of Ronald Reagan and William Casey enact their relationship as if in a crude ancient play.

- In this inaugural episode a group of young actors inhabit an empty apartment, their behavior taped and edited in-camera. An analog solarization technique captures their rituals of improvised dance, frozen poses and trimming of hair. Each cast member recounts painful personal life episodes that unfold like cheap sci-fi stories of otherworldly abductions, familial vanishings, strange dreams and reptilian passions.
- The origins of the universe told through the lens of an experimental film and video sci-fi horror-show fusion: Alien women trapped in a colorfully hand-scratched film-textured hotel room, genetically mutated men slowly driven mad in a white digital prison, the high contrast landscapes of Mars, and a futuristic tribe of a giant, an elf and a witch in their decaying suicide-home.
- A grimy, VHS, edited in-camera, apocalyptic feature finalizes the cycle. Two of the actresses from the first video remain but now are joined by a supporting cast of public access outcasts. Using sculptures, drawings, paintings, crude animations, puppets and heavily self-conscious performance - the final piece attempts to string a through-line from the caves of Lascaux and the Gnosis to the DNA-mishap-mutants of the future.
- A merciless narrative about the inner world of a nameless cult, consisting of a small group of devotees, led by a single, lurchingly unpredictable patriarch, take on the sparse structure of a Biblical parable.
- The marriage of two young professionals unravels after an unnamed accident physically and emotional traumatizes the wife.
- Written in 1993, THICK COMB was James Fotopoulos' earliest unrealized script, about a criminal porn producer hunting down the world's greatest lover for thieving an adult film's production budget. A couple years ago the script was resurrected and rewrote with the protagonist confessing to his lover other incomplete Fotopoulos film scenarios from the 1990s.
- Two of the female characters from Jerusalem (2003) appear in a new location: a black and white minimalist apartment. With the aid of drawings to illustrate their psychological probing, the ladies perform basic physical repetitions and frozen poses while being captured on video and re-lensed through cyan solarizations. Layered stereo monologues speak of their continuing personal explorations into the paranormal dream symbols of their private histories.
- After a zookeeper's wife is raped and murdered he descends into an underworld of sex, drugs, death and religion.
- A digital poem of the flesh unfolding in near mathematical structural precision. The video's first segment is a meditation upon the movements of a single female body. The second section focuses on the physical mechanics of a male and female couple. The human footage is augmented with superimposed abstractions, flickering lights, paintings, sound waves and sculptures.
