Cicada Madness!

Sam Fishman is presenting his "Cicada Madness" project to the Record Executive (played by Mike Pollock, voice of Dr. Eggman in the animated Sonic the Hedgehog series). Let's just say the Executive is not too thrilled about we he just listened to...

Episode 1: Somewhere in Hancock

What happens when two sorority girls go on a road trip to West Virginia?

We are introduced to Amber and Jamie, two friends that complement each other well. Amber being the hyper sexualized girl who is outspoken and comfortable receiving lots of attention, while Jamie exudes more of a quiet confidence and knows how to go with the flow.

After having a meal at the diner, the two girls continue down the highway in hopes of reaching a secluded cabin where they can let loose with some guy “friends.” Unfortunately, things don’t work out the way they had hoped.

Episode 3: The Frat Party

Steve is in a fraternity. This particular fraternity likes to throw big parties and have wild nights indulging in pleasure. Everything is moving along just fine until some uninvited guests show up. Hilarity ensues, or perhaps complete and utter chaos is a better way to describe it. All of this is set to one of the heaviest and progressive metal instrumentals to come along in years.

We pick up where Episode 1 left off. Amber and Jamie are in a fight for their lives inside the abandoned motel, surrounded by giant cicadas. Luckily, a lone cowboy named Derrick comes to the rescue. This episode is the first to feature two full rock songs! This is the exciting and bittersweet conclusion to the story within the story of Cicada Madness! Two episodes remain…
