Declaration

film director

“Safe Neighborhood is a film about growing pains. Kids today mature at a screaming speed. They are the Internet Generation, and they have only ever known total access. Sixteen Candles has given way to ‘Sixteen Condoms.’ What’s exciting about Safe Neighborhood is it nails this new voice. Further, it delivers the package in a wicked twist on the home invasion genre like you’ve never seen.”
