Dorothy Booraem is a video production multi-hyphenate from Lincoln, Nebraska. In addition to creating several film and video shorts, she is also the writer and director of the Asian-influenced horror feature Wake the Witch (available on Netflix). As the COO of Unfiltered Entertainment, a privately owned production company, she has helped in fostering a creative community of artists who specialize in genre content. Her newest project, Blood Rites, is a well-shot, micro-budget horror feature that she co-wrote, produced and directed with the help of her dedicated team. In spite of our underwhelming review, Booraem generously gave her time (and refreshing sense of humor) to speak with Planet Fury about working with a low budget, her creative process and embracing negative criticism.

Go back to mom and dad’s basement. Flee to Mexico. Just don’t, under any circumstances, proceed to the previously planned rendezvous point. No good can come from this. Rest assured your partners-in-crime will be there waiting. Some of them will be knocking on death’s door. Some will be stark raving mad. Some will be planning on two-timing you regardless of success.
Look-it, plans have changed. People have died. Anger is involved. Guns are too. Whoever is left will be desperate and ready to turn on you. And if someone is...
