It is with great sadness that we have to report the death of Beverly Bonner in 2020. Just know that she was so excited about her film and the reaction "Steamed" was getting.
This horror/comedy film, STEAMED!, co-written by Beverly Bonner and Dan Fiorella, is Ms. Bonner’s debut as Executive Producer/Director of a film. Ms. Bonner, somewhat of a Cult Horror Film Icon, has appeared in all of Director Frank Henenlotter's films, and had a lead role as Casey his cult horror film classic, "Basket Case" and was featured in the two sequels. Mr. Henenlotter also makes an appearance in STEAMED!
STEAMED! follows Louise Campbell (played by Bonner), a take-no-sh!t stand- up comedian who can stand toe-to-toe with any challenge, be it hecklers, cheap club owners, nosy neighbors or crazy psychiatrists--any challenge, that is, except a green stalker with a LOT of balls. But she can’t just laugh it off when the bodies start piling up around her...It's a genre-bender, sorta film noir, mixing shocks & schtick, laughs & gasps, all filmed in glorious Black & White!
