The sexy, thrilling anthology series is about powerful, sexy and dangerous women styled in the tradition of pulp stories, film noir and graphic novels.  The half-hour program features stories inspired by such noir classic as Double Indemnity and Pulp Fiction and classic thriller TV series like The Twilight Zone.

In each stand-alone episode, which is part of a bigger interweaving mythology, women find extraordinary ways of coping with their problems, channeling their survival instincts and bringing out their inner guile.   The series was recently honored as an Official Selection of the prestigious Sitges Film Festival in Spain which screened seven episodes from the series first season. 

The season premiere, “16 Minutes of Fame,” is a sly murder mystery and satire on today’s popular reality series like “Jersey Shore” and “Big Brother.”

Notable guest stars in the series include Vivica A. Fox (Kill Bill, Independence Day), Jeff Fahey (Lost, Grindhouse), Eric Roberts (The Dark Knight), Casper Van Dien (Starship Troopers), Antonio Sabato, Jr. (General Hospital, Bones), Kyle Gass (Tenacious D), Steve Railsback (The Stunt Man, Lifeforce), Leilani Sarelle (Basic Instinct), Robert LaSardo (Nip/Tuck, Death Race), Reggie Hayes (Girlfriends), Paul Rae (True Grit), Dean Haglund (The X-Files, The Lone Gunmen), Charlie O’Connell (Crossing Jordan), Robert Picardo (Star Trek: Voyager) , Nikki Griffin (Fast & The Furious III) and legendary film director and Oscar® nominee Paul Mazursky.
