Global Entertainment Holdings Announces “Plaster Rock” Now Available on DVD

Wednesday, December 22nd, 2010

December 22, 2010, Los Angeles, CA — Global Entertainment Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB: GBHL) announces the commercial release of the latest movie, “Plaster Rock – Terror on the Tobique”, produced by its Canadian affiliate, Global Universal Pictures. The film is being released by another subsidiary, Global Universal Film Group. “We are excited to be releasing this film to the public”, stated GBHL CEO, Gary Rasmussen. He continued “revenues from the release of American Sunset are being realized in this fiscal quarter and now Plaster Rock will ramp up revenues in the first quarter of 2011. Our previous film, American Sunset, starring the late Corey Haim, is scheduled to be released as an AppFlik on Apple iTunes before year end and, depending on how well it is received, we will also consider releasing Plaster Rock as an AppFlik.” The Plaster Rock DVD, along with a Free Plaster Rock Hat, is now available at: www.PlasterRockMovie.com.

“Plaster Rock – Terror On The Tobique”– Based upon events that actually occurred near the filming location, four young men and women are boated into a hunting lodge in the wilds of northern New Brunswick, Canada to partake in a cross country ski race in which the winner will reap a cash prize of $250,000. Each contestant is a former athlete or high-profile celebrity who has already received a deposit of $25,000 for their time just to travel and enter the race in the desolate area known as “Plaster Rock.” The only problem is, once left at the lodge by boat, there is no way out, and each contestant begins to realize they have more at stake than the cash prize.

Plaster Rock is a fast-paced thriller-horror film which takes place in remote wilderness where you need more than luck to survive!

Jackie Giroux, the film’s co-creator and director, commented, “…the use of a professional magician as an integral part of a films’ plot is very rare. What makes our film unique is, we utilized the world renown talents of Peter Loughran, Master of Illusions. Peter has created original Illusions for top magicians around the world including Criss Angel for the popular television program called “MindFreak!” Peter gives an amazing performance in Plaster Rock.”

Peter Loughran states, “It was really a thrill for me to take a break from designing magic and illusions, and sharpen my acting skills to become one of the central characters in “Plaster Rock.” My character was based on one of the oldest unsolved mysteries in New Brunswick, so it was equally challenging to research ‘this very real psycho’ and sink my teeth into a very meaty role, while creating many of the illusions in the film..” Peter’s site www.masterofillusions.ca has over three thousand fans.

The femme fatale, Lalesha Railsback, is no stranger to horror films, since her father, veteran actor Steve Railsback, played Charles Manson, of the critically acclaimed film Helter Skelter. Ms. Railsback commented, “My dad has always been a method actor, and I have learned so much from his days at The Actors Studio.” Lalesha has been acting since she was fifteen years old, and co starred in movies such as Coo Coo Cafe with Barbara Carrera (directed by her Mom, Jackie Giroux), and The Mondavi Gang, which she co-directed. Most recently, she co-stars in another Global Universal film produced by Jackie Giroux, and currently in post production, The Night, which is due to be released in February of 2011. “Global Universal has been so dedicated to the up coming new talent, and enabled us to work together as a family, which is rare in the film business today”, added Lalesha Railsback.

Plaster Rock had a limited theatrical release at the Grand Falls Cinema Three, with Iron Man 2 and Nightmare on Elm Street, in May of 2010. Both Kirk Davidson, of K-93 FM Radio, and Kelsey McDonald of The Victoria Star News, gave Plaster Rock very favorable reviews.

Global Universal’s film Plaster Rock part of Silver Wave Film Festival…

Tuesday, November 2nd, 2010

New Brunswick film festival marks its 10th anniversary with full roster of feature films, docs, shorts and more…

The 10th annual Silver Wave Film Festival brings a flurry of film and festivities to Fredericton this week.

“With our 10th festival anniversary, new sponsors, new screening programs and new awards, we are entering yet another chapter of the festival,” says Tony Merzetti, executive director of New Brunswick Film Co-op. “The festival is about the love of cinema and we know that our audience will find something to love at the Silver Wave this year.”

Films will showcase a variety of genres, including Iranian, Canadian and International shorts, French, student, youth and documentaries. This year’s festival, running Thursday to Sunday, boasts a lineup of more than 80 films.

———–
‘Plaster Rock: Terror on the Tobique’

With an all New Brunswick cast and crew, Plaster Rock: Terror on the Tobique was filmed in the rural community of Riley Brook. The thriller-horror begins with a test of athletics that turns into a quest for survival. Director Jackie Giroux caught wind of a murder story in the area in the 1930s and Plaster Rock became her next project. While four former female and male athletes are set to participate in a wilderness cross-country skiing contest, set in a remote location only accessible by boat, they quickly realize there’s more than $250,000 on the line. It’s their lives. The quest to survive includes a solid cast of New Brunswick actors, including: Jessica Holt, Christine Johnson, Eric Leffler, Michael Mascucci, Frank Molina, Jason Nicholson, Lalesha Railsback, Kelsey Wilson and Peter Loughran.

Saturday, October 30th, 2010

October 28, 2010 Los Angeles, CA – (WORLD STOCK WIRE) – Global Entertainment Holdings, Inc. a publicly traded entertainment Company (OTCBB: GBHL), and its affiliate, Global Universal Pictures (“Global Pictures”), was honored at a New Brunswick, Canada, entertainment luncheon, where it was announced that Plaster Rock — Terror on the Tobique, had been officially selected, from among numerous quality films, as a feature presentation film at this year’s Annual Silver Wave Film Festival. More information on the film, and the Plaster Rock trailer can be viewed at: www.plasterrockmovie.com.

This will be the Silver Wave ’s 10th Annual Film Festival, which selects feature films, documentaries and short films produced around the World, but highlights film makers in the New Brunswick area. CBC television is one of the sponsors of the film festival, and offers a lucrative distribution deal to selected winners.

The Fredericton News Channel in New Brunswick, Canada, covered the exclusive luncheon, which named its official selections from among more than 80 films in competition at this year’s event, to be held November 4th in Fredericton.  Global Universal Picture’s film Director, Jackie Giroux, was featured in the Fredericton News Channel’s coverage of the luncheon event (http://frederictonnewschannel.com/).

Plaster Rock was named an official selection based on its favorable reviews and the success of its limited theatrical release at The Grand Cinema Three in Grand Falls, New Brunswick, before it went to the prestigious Cannes International Film Festival in May, 2010.

Jackie Giroux, the film’s director, stated, “Last year we were honored to have our film, American Sunset, selected to officially open the Silver Wave Film Festival, and this year we thrilled with being honored once again having Plaster Rock featured as an official selection. This validates the quality of feature films that the Global Universal team can produce. Plaster Rock is our third feature film produced in less than two years, with our fourth film, “The Night”, currently in post-production, and already developing a following stemming from the film’s cast, including a Hollywood newcomer and child star, Ian Hamrick, as well as Lalesha Railsback, daughter of well known actor Steve Railsback.”

Global Universal is pleased to play such a distinguished role in the Silver Wave Film Festival, and looks forward to continue its production of quality feature films for the world to enjoy.  Last year’s opening film, American Sunset, starring the late Corey Haim, is now available on DVD only at www.AmericanSunsetTheMovie.com

Plaster Rock is an action packed thriller-horror film with humorous and egotistical characters. The story depicts eight young men and women, celebrities in their own mind, who are paid to compete in a cross-country skiing contest in the wilderness of northern New Brunswick, Canada. However, once left in the wilderness, they soon discover there is a hidden agenda behind this strange, but profitable  outing. Each participant is led to believe they must be the superior, lone survivor in order to collect the lavish cash reward. The plot takes a spell binding twist when the participants begin to realize that they must collaborate together in order outsmart their mysterious host.

About Silver Wave Film Festival: The Silver Wave Film Festival is jam packed with exciting film events and video programming with diversity and depth. The Festival is the brainchild of the board and staff at the New Brunswick Filmmakers’ Co-operative.
