Cruzando directed by Valley natives Michael Ray Escamilla & Mando Alvarado in 2009. A wonderfully strange and sweet adventure tale from South Texas, Cruzando will fill your heart and break it and fill it up again. Rarely comes a strong border-crossing movie and never a mythic, comedy adventure saturated with authenticity and characters we can truly know and love. A gem and a real treat for this near-border town.

Last Stop for Paul directed by Neil Mandt in 2006. Cliff and Charlie live boring lives in LA. In an effort to spice up their existence, Charlie suggests they go to the famous Full Moon Party in Thailand. Cliff agrees with the condition that in order to go they purchase around the world tickets and see the globe first. Short on cash, the only way they can afford to pull of the trip is by posing as travel writers for Frommers books so they can get free food and hotel rooms. Together they embark on a trip of a lifetime as they travel to the Caribbean, South America, Europe and Asia. Shot in over 20 countries, Cliff and Charlie have unbelievable adventures in every location and their lives are changed forever.

Dr. S Battles the Sex Crazed Reefer Zombies directed by Brownsville native Bryan Ortiz. A small group of scientists have unwittingly unleashed a horrible force upon the town. Mary Jane, the all American sweetheart, parks on Make Out Hill with her boyfriend Billy Everybody. He smokes some of the reefer and is suddenly transformed into a sex- crazed reefer zombie. Just as Billy lunges forward he is pulled out of the car and thrown to the ground and shot. Mary Jane looks at her brutal savior, Dr. S. Dr S. battles his way back to the city, while dragging Mary Jane behind him. What follows is a blood-soaked, fight-filled, extravaganza of pain, gore, and butchery that will bring an uncertain end for Crystal Oaks and the world as we know it.
