"At the California premiere of THE LURKING MAN. Co-written and produced, edited, and starring the lovely and mega talented Maritza Brikisak as the troubled, multidimensional protag. Chills, laughs, and even an unexpected sympathy for the devil in this thought provoking tale of incomplete redemption. Look for the creepy demonic wing effect, underplayed and sinister. You’ll see what I mean!"

"Now I understand where all the accolades and acclaim are coming from! What a tremendous, tremendous achievement!!! And what was MOST impressive to

me, even more than your tour de force performance, was the fact that you edited and produced the work! Inspired me beyond belief! Continued success n inspiration on your journey, mi amiga! Congratulations!!"

"Your movie taught me that the genre can have a lot of variety and depth, it was sometimes painful for me to watch, but it was so good and so powerful. I cried a lot during the movie, because you did such a great job."

"Maritza is a true Renaissance woman of the horror genre. She co-wrote, executive produced, played the lead role, edited the film, designed the poster, and did an incredible job at all of it. This film continues to rack up the festival awards, and rightly so. And, as she says, it's the only horror movie that makes people cry!"

"everyone had very strong performances, the scenes y'all did together were magic...There was a special something in the scenes you (Maritza) did together with Daniel, you really did carry the entire movie!"
