The series stars Martin Kove (Cobra Kai, Karate Kid films) Crystal Allen (Days of Our Lives, Star Trek: Enterprise) and Jeff Rector (American Horror Story). The End won the Silver Screen Award from the Nevada Film Festival.

Jeff’s comedic web series Trumped!, which he created, wrote, directed, produced and Starred in for two seasons, was “In Consideration” for multiple Emmy Awards in both 2019 and 2020 in the “Best Dramatic Short Form Series”, “Best Direction For A SHort Form Series” and “Best Leading Actor In A Short Form Series”.
Jeff’s projects include award-winning feature films, documentaries, web series and short films. His first film Fatal Kiss, (a vampire-themed dark comedy) won a variety of festival awards and is one of the few short films ever acquired by HBO in its 45-year history. With the success of Fatal Kiss, Jeff created new characters and storyline and expanded it into the feature film, Revamped which touts an all-star cast and is still streaming on multiple platforms worldwide.
Jeff’s first documentary film, Who Is Jeff Rector? starts out as a documentary on its writer, director and producer but quickly switches gears to focus on the lives of four complete strangers, a San Diego Lawyer, a Christian Youth Minister and a Rodeo Cowboy. The only thing they all share in common? Their names are all Jeff Rector. Who Is Jeff Rector? recently won awards at the Houston WorldFest “Platinum Award” for “Best Short Documentary”, “Grand Prize Winner” at the Golden State Film Festival and “Best Short Documentary” at The Brazil International Film Festival.
