Who would ever believe one single movie would have the likes of Damien Crosse, Francesco DMacho, Ricky Sinz, Scott Tanner, Steve Cruz, David Taylor, Wilfried Knight and all the other guys! Its a directors dream. The stars are lined up for us to produce another classic, best selling film.
Tony Dimarco had this to say: I feel this movie is probably one of the biggest undertakings so far in my career in terms of the scope and the complexity of the story. Its much more developed than anything Ive worked on in the past. I love the challenge of doing things Ive never done before and Im excited to be working on this project.
We were also very lucky to come up with such an amazing A-level cast. Things just seemed to fall into place and before we knew it, we were looking at many big names. We didnt plan it that way but now it makes total sense.em. Co-director Ben Leon observed, As a filmmaker, my goal is to face new challenges and push myself and those around me to produce bigger and better, but also more refined, films.

As a follow up to "To The Last Man" [2008], the Raging Stallion team is ready to hit new heights that the critics and the audience expect. "Focus/Refocus" [2009] is a script that is demanding on multiple levels. The acting is essential, the lighting is essential and of course the hot sex is essential. As a team, Chris, Tony and I are continually pushing each other to raise the bar. This project will be a culmination of all our talents and skills.
The sixty-page Focus/Refocus [2009] script was written by Dan Rhodes. There are some significantly controversial elements in this film that will raise eyebrows. To The Last Man generated controversy because of the high level of violence in the film. Focus/Refocus [2009] is also shocking in many ways, but most of the deaths that occur in this crime drama take place off screen.
