Who else but hosts Wendy Stuart and Tym Moss could “spill the tea” on their weekly show “If These Walls Could Talk” live from Pangea Restaurant on the Lower Eastside of NYC, with their unique style of honest, and emotional interviews, sharing the fascinating backstory of celebrities, entertainers, recording artists, writers and artists and bringing their audience along for a fantastic ride.

Chris & Jim McLennan run several businesses. But the most thought provoking one has been, for the last 14 years, Phoenix FearCON. As fans of films and film making, they used to attend film festivals for years. Every time they’d go, they would talk about what would make this festival, or that festival better and we started making a list: “If we ran a film festival, what would it be like?” They would add to that wish list each time we went to another festival. Until 2006, when Chris and Jim decided to go ahead and do their own film festival with the intention of exploring independent film and filmmakers. Their intentions were not just to show their films, which, if you look at statistics, a very large percentage of films shown at festivals are never seen or heard from again and they found that statistic very unfair. At Phoenix FearCON, they have partnered up with several Film Distribution companies, who distribute on a multitude of platforms globally. Their partnership with these companies has given us the advantage of offering the winners of our festival a promise by our partner companies to distribute their films worldwide and get the recognition they so clearly deserve. They have improved the business plan for the FearCON over the years, to include a very interactive experience for horror film fans, and made the festival very like a convention. They’ve included Workshops, Panel Discussions, Interactive Photo Ops with CosPlayers and Sideline Entertainers as well as a wonderful Marketplace full of unique vendors to sell their wares and collectibles to their specific target audience. All of this in addition to screening 8-10 Feature Films and 20-30 Short films. It made for a long 2-3 days, but it was well worth it in our eyes. In addition to their prize of a distribution contract, Chris makes the trophies herself for each of the categories, so filmmakers who win the event have a tangible, unique reminder that their hard work, the blood, sweat and tears that went into making their project was important and won’t be forgotten.
