Welcome to PrimalCine

No Budget Film and more

The home of PrimalCine Productions.

My name is Brian Cheverie,

web master for PrimalCine.  We are a startup (some would say upstart)   no budget film company.   We are a bunch of friends with a passion for making movies.   We come from many walks of life  and ages ranging from nine to 50+.  Most of us are in our 20's and early 30's.    To date our  output includes no budget  film shorts  in the horror, science fiction and thriller genres under the SWL Productions label, (Flies in the Window, a suspense/thriller short TheBox,  a horror tale of demonic possession  and Southern, a dark comedy and the recent addition of a documentary under the PrimalCine lable, but we aspire to rival Spielberg / Lucas someday. (if  you are going to dream, dream big)  Each of us has the dreaded DAY JOB. But under that mundane exterior is an artist looking to get out. Our films, music and what not is that avenue of escape.

The music you are hearing is a piece entitled   "ARE YOU THE MONSTER?" I composed for a movie project in about 2004.   It was a horror/psycho thriller film about a former mental patient with a homicidal alter ego.     Click Brian Cheverie's Music Page  to listen to some more of my music.   Comments, suggestions, rants and raves are welcome.    To contact us click the email links below and at the bottom of the page.
