George Nevada bio:
His parents moved from Apulia (Italy) to Boston when they were young. He was born there but he has never forgotten his italian origin. Before opening the little restaurant his father did any job, including some appearances in italian horror movies of Freda and Bava. George is a restaurateur, but his father’s death prompted him to dedicate to him the film that he always wanted to make. For this reason he decided to pay homage to his second motherland with The Musk, a slasher film that recalls the old italian cinema. The villain, Tony Maio, is also an homage to his father’s name, Tonino. In the film there will be all the cliches of the genre but also a lot of fear and a bit of humor.
