CAST
Alexander Anthony Quinn was born into the spotlight. Groomed for Hollywood
success from an early age, it wasn’t until 2002 that the son of two-time Academy
Award® winning actor Anthony Quinn, decided to follow in his fathers footsteps
and pursue an acting career.

Contrary to what many would believe, Alex was not born with a silver spoon in
his mouth, nor did he have an all-access pass to the limelight. Humility and a
strong work ethic were lessons imparted to him at a very young age by his father,
who was also raised in a humble, working-class environment. It was because of
these intrinsic values that Alex struggled for many years behind the scenes as a
production assistant. Working on productions such as Quentin Tarantino's Jackie
Brown only fuelled Alex's desire to be in front of the camera.

Named by W Magazine in 2002 as one of Hollywood's most notable kids to
watch, Alex snagged early roles alongside several Hollywood heavyweights. His
first starring role was in the independent feature film An Existential Affair, opposite
Academy Award® winning actor Martin Landau (The Majestic, Ed Wood) and
Gretchen Becker (The Doors).

Thriving on challenging, less commercial roles, Alex established himself early on as
an actor wanting to raise the bar. To date, Alex has acted in more than six
independent feature films. They include, "Starving Hysterical Naked" (with Billy
Zane), “Last Goodbye” (with Faye Dunaway and David Carradine), “The Devil
Inside”, “Clash”, “The Curse of Alcatraz”, and most recent, “Lake Dead”.

In mid 2006, Alex added yet another feather to his already brimming cap.
Signing on to produce 3 feature films, his career completed a full circle from his
early days of laboring as a production assistant. Embracing this new
undertaking, Alex juggles his roles of Actor, Producer, Artisan & Entrepreneur
gracefully and with acumen and gusto.

David Shark Fralick currently plays the menacing ex-con, ‘Warton’ on the #1
Daytime Drama “The Young and The Restless”; can be seen chasing Nicholas
Cage through film, “Gone in 60 Seconds”; plays opposite ‘Master P’ as the
Aryan supremacist ‘Graffiti’ in “Lockdown”; played mercenary ‘Flat Top’
pursuing Cuba Gooding Jr. and Skeet Ulrich in the thriller “Chill Factor”; makes a
guest appearance in Stu Segall’s latest series, “18 Wheels of Justice”; and co-
starred with Jean Claude Van Damme in the film, “Desert Heat” as ‘Matt
Hogan’, a role which was for Shark, a study in contrasts.

Shark himself is a study in contrasts. He is the quintessential tough guy in action
films, yet he is the genuine article. Influenced by his father’s military discipline,
Shark has continually studied various styles of the martial arts since the young
age of five. At eighteen, he impressed Coach Paul “Bear” Bryant with his
unlimited physical abilities, determination and grit; which earned him the
position of a walk-on wide receiver on Alabama’s “Crimson Tide” (’79 - ‘82).

Shark’s toughness also served him well in roles such as Master of the killing art
‘Southern Cross’ in “Fist of the North Star”, the vicious vampire ‘Ulmer’ in “Night
Hunter”, and as a deadly assassin in “Without Warning”. He doubled John
Jackson fighting Steven Seagal in “Glimmerman” & has appeared in action
films such as; Invasion Force, the One, TNT, Future Shock, Scorpion King,
Soultaker, Dark Rider, Uncle Sam; and the episodic; “VIP”, “Sons of Thunder”,
“Babylon 5”, and the series, ”The Big Easy”.

On the other side of the paradox, Shark has spent years diligently studying his
craft and committing himself to the art of acting. As a result, his chameleon-like
ability has allowed him to portray a wide variety of characters with totally
different physical appearances. He has disappeared into roles such as ‘Hans’,
the Dutch drug buyer in Sylvester Stallone’s “Assassins”; Dwayne, the sensitive
and simple-minded escapee in “The Legend of Wolf Mountain” w/ Mickey
Rooney and Bo Hopkins; & played Darryl Hannah’s love slave in “The Last Days
of Frankie the Fly”, starring Dennis Hopper; and most recently starred in “When I
Find the Ocean” with Lee Majors and Diane Ladd as an Inbred Poacher.

Shark’s avid pursuit of arts led him from the stage where he played roles such as
Don Baker in Butterflies are Free; Lenny in Of Mice and Men; Shakespeare’s
Hamlet; Tom in The Glass Menagerie, Teach in American Buffalo,& Phil in That
Championship Season.

Comedy is also a part of Shark’s repertoire. He has emceed as well as
performed stand-up in comedy clubs on both the east and west coasts since
‘87.

Shark’s diversity carries over into his personal life. In his spare time, he enjoys golf,
restoring antique cars, playing bass guitar and classical piano, and playing
‘daddy’ to three dogs and a snake. He has a passion for water sports, chess
playing (at which he is a champion) and has done some choral singing as well!
Through the love and support of his mother, and his belief in the Yin and Yang of
life, Shark studies Tai Chi from a Shao-Lin Monk, and considers himself a ‘Spiritual
Warrior’. He attends sanctuary religiously.

Shark started his own Production Company “Shark Eye Prods. Inc” in 2003, has
co- produced 6 films to date and with several upcoming projects in the works,
he is proven to be a visible player in the Entertainment Industry for a long time
to come…

Dumpster Diver
Dumpster Diver
the movie
Dumpster Diver is a short horror film written, directed and co-produced by
Drunken Boxer founder
Paul Benson.  The spark of the idea for the film
came to him early one morning when he was walking his white boxer
Rollo.  He rounded the corner, and halfway down the block was a
dishevelled homeless man, standing stock still behind a retaining wall and
staring in his direction.

This idea germinated for awhile, and then in talks with producer Jennifer
Albrecht, the idea grew into a full short film script.  

The film is about how the average middle-class person relates to the
homeless with the simultaneous, contradictory emotions of pity and
revulsion.  The story is told through the eyes of Conroy, a television
producer out of touch with the common man, and is about his
unfortunate encounter with a mentally damaged derelict.
WRITER/DIRECTOR
Paul Benson
An alumnus of the UCLA School of Theater, Film and Television, Paul holds an
MFA in acting.  Despite appearances on such shows as Mad TV and Star Trek:
Voyager, Paul found that while he enjoyed the craft of acting, it was the
business side of it that he hated.  When multiple casting directors informed
him that "he'd be a hot commodity at 40," Paul decided he wasn't going to
wait that long.  So he turned to some of his other talents: writing and directing.

He quickly made that transition, as he was already participating in a writing
workshop in Santa Monica.  Paul soon acquired a writing partner, Matt
Sullivan, and the pair launched into work, churning out comedy scripts.   Their
first feature script,
Disaster! the movie, was bought by Dream Entertainment
and produced as a claymation animated feature.  It will see release into
theaters this October 2006.

Paul  continued to write on his own as well, winning first place in the Unique
Television Competition for his original sitcom
Doggy Style.  He also writes comic
books, having been published in
X-Men Unlimited #6 and by Hippy Comix.

Dumpster Diver marks Paul's return to directing, which he pursued steadily
both during and after college.  He looks forward to sharing his directorial
vision with the world.
