The Trail was a physically demanding endeavor , Here we got Co-Director and Cinematographer Apple @therealbadapple risking his life to grab a prop that found its way dangerously off trail during a take 😂, luckily, aside from Co- Director @s.neino falling on his butt a few times, nobody was seriously injured ! Ahhh..The things we do to capture the right shot ! You can check out the “The Trail” with the link on bio!

Queen Mary’s Dark Harbor 2026 @qmdarkharbor - Phenomenal time. The mazes on the boat are always extra eerie. I’m always blown away by how long and creepy the corridors are. So far , All the haunts have been solid this year. Thanks to @therealbadapple @tarakdian @deargoogie @renatamallmann29 @chrisprust for joining in and making it the perfect spooky night in the LBC.

Was able to watch The Goblins yesterday, a feature film brought to life by some amazing individuals, and it definitely piqued my interest! 👹🎬

It was funny, suspenseful, and honestly felt very LA. Just everyday life 😭 trying to figure out money, how to survive, paying rent, navigating your love life, finding work, all of it. 😂

One thing I really liked was the idea that we all have different ways of coping with everyday life, and hers happens to be drawing people as goblins. 👹✍️

Such a cool feature, and I can’t wait to see what kind of goblins pop out of LA next. 😂👹

Props to @therealbadapple for introducing me to this production and inviting me to the screening. 🖤🎬

Can’t wait for more!

Follow @wyrdoproductions and @thegoblinsmovie 🖤🎬

Well, we did it! It was such an amazing night at the one and only Mann’s Chinese Theater in Hollywood! It was such an honor to have our first film THE TRAIL screened at the 2026 Indiewood Film Festival.

We want to thank everyone that came out to support us and spend such a great evening with the cast and crew. There’s nothing like having our family and friends to share this experience with us.

We want to thank everyone that has been so supportive from day one and those that found us through different channels and joined in on the journey along the way.

A special thank you to @indiewoodfilmfestival for selecting us to be part of their amazing film festival, and to the @chinesetheatres for providing such a great viewing experience.

BadOnien Films is just getting started, and we can’t wait to share what’s coming up next.

🙌🏼 Watching The Trail go from that first screening to the Indiewood Film Festival at the TCL Chinese Theatres has been pretty amazing. I remember seeing it for the first time, completely pulled into the atmosphere, sound design and suspense, and wondering where BadOnien Films would go from there. 🎥

Fast-forward to this moment, and seeing The Trail on that screen felt a little surreal. What started as someone’s idea became something an entire team brought to life, and now it’s reaching new audiences and new places. There’s so much talent behind and in front of the camera, and seeing that creativity come together and continue to grow has been incredible to witness.

Congratulations 🍾 to everyone involved in The Trail, and especially @s.neino @therealbadapple. 🖤🎬 This is one of those milestones you stop and appreciate but definitely not one you stop at. Here’s to seeing where the next one takes you 🛣️
