Bryan Brooks Utilizes Talent and Pure Grit to Compete With Large Studio Films This Summer Despite the Strikes and Controversies Plaguing Hollywood
SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, August 11, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — (Por favor, desplácese hacia abajo para la versión en español)
Impacting the entertainment industry, Bryan Brooks has created an unprecedented production. Playing the role of writer, director, producer, editor, special effects artist, set designer and protagonist, Brooks makes his debut on the big screen with the film Wrecker (2022). This epic independent film endeavor tells the story of a construction worker named John Knox (Bryan Brooks) who joins forces with a sharp-shooting detective (Madrid Amora Mora) in search of John’s missing wife. During their search, the two unknowingly find themselves entangled in the sinister plan of a powerful cartel boss who is planning a citywide takeover. The cartel has administered a newly discovered drug to thousands of unwilling participants. The drug induces the brain into a zombie-like stage whilst enhancing the body with super human strength. The crime boss’ plan is to attack an American city with a horde of ‘zombies’ just before laying seige of the city by force. The malevolent cartel boss will soon discover that he has underestimated the tenacity of his new adversaries.
Independent filmmakers are known for their freedom of creativity and content. Due to their low budgets, most independent projects do not incorporate renowned actors nor directors, but instead rely on the sheer determination to impress their audiences. Thus, Brooks worked tirelessly for years in the creation of his film alongside longtime friends Madrid Amora-Mora, Brandon Hamilton, Charlie Woods and Tyrone Hutton. The result of all that hard work is a gritty, non-stop action movie with an 80s style that is every bit the quality and standard of a much larger budget Hollywood film.
“The biggest challenge for independent filmmakers is to come up with original ideas that both entertain and connect with audience members, ideas that invite discussion on the issues we believe are relevant,” says Bryan Brooks. “Breaking new ground and pushing boundaries with unique storylines and compelling ideas that engage audiences is how emerging talent gets noticed,” says Brandon Hamilton, the film’s Director of Photography.
Determined to show the world his abilities after years of hard work and great effort, Bryan Brooks is very pleased to have created what he calls the film he always wanted to see. “People are smart and need intellectual stimulation more than mundane stories and predictable endings, that’s where it pays to be an independent filmmaker. I just made the movie I always wanted to see. Wrecker (2022) is pure action, filled with crazy sets, funny situations , memorable characters, fantastic fight scenes, macho heroes, beautiful and powerful women and of course zombies! In short, Wrecker has it ALL!” Says Bryan Brooks.
The post-production of Wrecker (2022) concluded at the beginning of 2022 and shortly after it was released in the United States through the renowned Los Angeles based film distributor Indie Rights, who are very happy with the success the film is having. They are very excited to make the official launch in South America and especially in Colombia where part of the movie takes place.
Currently Wrecker (2022) is available around the world on YOUTUBE MOVIES with subtitles and will soon be dubbed into Spanish. The film is also available in Canada, USA, Mexico and the UK on TUBI and AMAZON PRIME VIDEO.
(En Español)
Impactando en la industria del entretenimiento, Bryan Brooks se suma en una producción sin precedentes. En el rol de escritor, director, productor, editor y protagonista, Bryan, hace su debut en la pantalla grande con su película Wrecker (2022) que relata la historia de un trabajador de la construcción en busca de su esposa desaparecida. Uniendo fuerzas con un detective para encontrarla, sin saberlo se ve envuelto en el siniestro plan del jefe de un cartel criminal que busca apoderarse de la ciudad. El malévolo jefe de cártel pronto descubrirá que ha subestimado la tenacidad de su nuevo adversario.
Los cineastas independientes, son conocidos por su libertad de creatividad y contenido. Debido a los bajos presupuestos, la mayoría de ellos no trabajan con actores ni directores de renombre, pero si con el determinación de impactar a la audiencia. De esta forma Brooks trabajó incansablemente durante años, junto al talento de Madrid Amora-Mora, Brandon Hamilton, Charlie Woods y Tyrone Hutton, para traer a la luz a “Wrecker”, una película de acción al estilo de los años 80 al nivel de Hollywood.
“El mayor reto de un filmmaker, es traer una idea original, que entretenga y conecte con la audiencia, cree controversia e invite a debatir sobre los temas que creemos relevantes” comenta Bryan Brooks.
“Romper esquemas y empujar los límites con historias únicas e ideas atractivas que atrapen a la audiencia es la forma en que se notan los talentos emergentes” Dice Brandon Hamilton, Director de fotografia del film.
Con la determinación de mostrarle al mundo sus habilidades y despúes de años de intenso trabajo y grandes esfuerzos Bryan Brooks esta muy satisfecho de haber creado lo que el llama su obra maestra. “La gente es inteligente y necesita estimulación intelectual, más que historias mundanas y finales predecibles, ahí es donde vale la pena ser cineasta independiente. Simplemente hice la pelicula que siempre quise ver. Wrecker (2022) es acción pura, escenarios locos, situaciones divertidas, personajes memorables, escenas de luchas fantasticas, heroes machos, mujeres hermosas y poderosas y por supuesto ¡zombies! En pocas palabras Wrecker lo tiene ¡TODO!” Dice Bryan Brooks.
La posproducción de “Wrecker” concluyó a principios del 2022 y poco después fue lanzada en los Estados Unidos a través la reconocida distribuidora de cine independiente INDIE RIGHTS, quienes están muy felices por el éxito que este film está teniendo. Están muy emocionados de hacer el lanzamiento oficial en Sur America y especialmente en Colombia en donde parte de la pelicula se desarrolla.
Actualmente “Wrecker” (2022) está disponible en YouTube Movies con subtitulos y proximamente doblada al español. Ver en TUBI y AMAZON PRIME VIDEO también.

Search begins today for nation’s top linebacker; celebration event planned for January 2024
CHICAGO, UNITED STATES, August 10, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — Contact: Matthew Butkus

BUTKUS AWARD® 39th SEASON WATCH LIST ANNOUNCED
Search begins today for nation’s top linebacker; celebration event planned for January 2024
The 39th annual Butkus Award® selection process for the top linebackers in the country got underway today with the release of the collegiate preseason watch list.
The number of linebackers on the watch list, 51, is a nod to the storied “51” pro jersey worn by the award’s namesake, Dick Butkus, who was named by NFL Films as the greatest defensive player in football history. The Butkus Award recognizes the best linebackers in football.
Candidates for the college Butkus Award are on the watch list from 44 schools, including a previous finalist: Jamon Dumas-Johnson of Georgia and the two recurring semifinalists: Ohio State’s Tommy Eichenberg and UConn’s Jackson Mitchell. The Big Ten leads all conferences with 12 representatives, followed by the SEC with 11. Teammates from seven schools – Clemson, Georgia, LSU, Michigan, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Penn State – have been named to the list and all 10 Division I FBS conferences are represented. The list also features one FCS player.
The award semifinalists are expected to be named Oct. 30 with finalists to follow Nov. 20. The winner will be named on or before Dec. 6. Appearing on the watch list is not a requirement to win the award.
“I am always excited about seeing our great watch list players on the field,” said Butkus, the College and Pro Football Hall of Famer. “When an outstanding player receives the Butkus Award he will know two things: First, he is recognized as the best of the best linebackers in America; Second, and in the long run most important, he will understand this recognition brings a responsibility of giving back.”
All 2023 Butkus Award winners will be honored at a televised event in Jan. 2024. BTN (the Big Ten Network) aired the event last season, featuring Butkus and numerous noted NFL Alumni. To watch the show online via YouTube, click here.
Founded in 1985, the Butkus Award honors linebackers at three levels while supporting causes important to the Butkus family. Causes include the Butkus Takes Heart™ initiative encouraging early cardiovascular screening among adults, and the I Play Clean® initiative encouraging athletes to train naturally without performance-enhancing drugs.
A 51-member expert panel of coaches, scouts, and journalists guides the selection process. Past winners of the collegiate award include such greats as Patrick Willis, Von Miller, Luke Kuechly, Devin White, Roquan Smith and many more. The Butkus Award is increasingly focused on recognizing linebackers who consistently play off the ball on their feet in a two-point stance in traditional form.
The Butkus Awards will be unveiling a new trophy design for this year’s recipients. Designed by renowned sculptor George Lundeen, whose works include the Red Grange and Dick Butkus statues outside Memorial Stadium at the University of Illinois.
Jack Campbell of Iowa was the 2022 recipient. The 18th overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft by the Detroit Lions was also the recipient of the National Football Foundation’s prestigious William V. Campbell Trophy, annually awarded to college football’s top scholar-athlete.
The watch list for the 2023 Butkus Award for high school players will be released later this month. The Butkus Award watch list will be posted on the new Butkus Award website, thebutkusaward.com, powered by American Eagle, a global website development and digital marketing agency.
