SWAMP SHARK : Highly Recommended to SyFy Fans

2011-06-26T11:07:00.000-07:00

Swamp Shark debuted to rave reviews on SyFy on Saturday June 25th at 8pm.

Horror Society reviews the film:

"One of the qualities that puts Swamp Shark above the majority of the other SyFy films is the actors ability to actually act! All of the main and supporting cast are great, and even the little bit parts are better than most of the cannon fodder we’ve seen on SyFy. Kristy Swanson is still amazing, years after Buffy The Vampire Slayer. D.B. Sweeny has been acting for a solid 26 years, and there’s obvious reasons why. Robert Davi is an award winning actor. Even new-comer Richard Tanne does a wonderful job. Usually the cast in SyFy films are really cheesy, really stale, or really forgetful. It was refreshing to see a cast who knew how to convey emotion and show more than one facial expression. Will any of them win any awards for their role in Swamp Shark? No, but when compared to Mountain of The Sasquatch or Mega Shark, I mean… Come on."

Campus Circle Review : The Beautiful Ones

2010-07-02T11:45:00.000-07:00

“The Beautiful Ones”: Now-July 31 @ Village Theater
By Stephanie Forshee

“The Beautiful Ones” messes with your mind and leave you wanting more. Its twisted plot is indisputably thought provoking. So much so, that you leave the theater filled with questions and double-checking if you truly understood what just happened.

In “The Beautiful Ones,” a love triangle’s reunion goes awry. Travis (Tory Scroggins) and Lola (Berda Gilmore) are tangled in a perverse relationship. Travis’ ex-friend and Lola’s former lover, Avi (Dylan Ramsey), returns to their lives after a pact he made with Travis 10 years ago.

Due to the play’s short length, it’s difficult to describe the plot too fully without including any spoilers, so I will refrain from giving away the juiciest details.

Scroggins is lovable yet mysterious and bloodcurdling as Travis. After all, no one knows the role better than him. This marks Scroggins’ playwright and directorial debut. He also serves as producer.

The script itself is creative and unsettling. It is an extremely sexual show with three beautiful actors.

With less than a 40-minute running time, the unexpected brevity makes it all the more suspenseful.

Gilmore’s performance as Lola is powerfully sexy. While her character is slightly disturbing, she’s sure to capture your attention and hold it tightly.

Ramsey’s performance is enjoyable as well. His mystique and appeal are laid on thick with his puzzling character.

To seal the deal, the theater offers a home-style buffet dinner one hour prior to curtain.

Prepare for an intimate family picnic-type of evening that proves refreshing for a night at the theater these days.

The Village Theater at the Lucy Florence Cultural Center is located at 3351 W. 43 St., Los Angeles. For more information, visit toryscroggins.com/the-beautiful-ones.

Market Wire Press Release: June 19, 2010

2010-06-19T16:07:00.000-07:00

Dylan Ramsey: Versatile Young Actor Leaps From Mouth of Shark Into Existential Nihilism, Enthusiastically

LOS ANGELES, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 06/19/10 --
Last week he was fending off sharks while filming in the bayous of Louisiana and this week he is plunging into the depths of existentialism and nihilism while opening in Los Angeles in the new play "The Beautiful Ones." This is just another example of the virtuosic versatility of the boundlessly enthusiastic globe-trotting actor Dylan Ramsey, who has portrayed characters ranging from a chimerical suicide bomber on FX's "Nip/Tuck" to a self-deprecating cross-dressing male prostitute in HBO's "Donny & Ginger."

Born in Prague, raised in Toronto, educated in New York at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, and now living in Los Angeles, Dylan already has had numerous starring roles in film, television, and theater. Fluent in Arabic and Polish, a master of dialects as diverse as Middle Eastern and Cockney, a former soldier and professional hip-hop dancer, this is a man for all seasons and all roles, given his upbringing and experience.

With a Jewish mother and an Arabic father, an East European birth, a Canadian education, and a California residence, he is already a walking melting pot of characters for stage and screen. "Life is meant to be lived, so risk it," he says, and he has, assuming roles as diverse as his background and making his mark with his iconoclastic character shadings.

The god of thespians has indeed been kind to him, allowing him to land a guest role in the wildly popular TV show "NCIS" and recently journey to Morocco for a role in "The Wayshower" with Eric Roberts.

Dylan Ramsey stars in the ambitious and challenging new play "The Beautiful Ones," opening June 19, 2010 at the Lucy Florence Cultural Center 3351 West 43rd St, Los Angeles, CA 90008. For more information about the play, call the theater at (323) 293-1356 or visit www.toryscroggins.com/thebeautifulones
