This screenplay was one of my first and I loved the concept so much that I put funding together to shoot a short film based on it in 1997. The film was shot on Super 16mm in Plattsmouth, Nebraska and starred a then unknown Chris Klein. The short film was going to be used to promote the concept and attain the funding for full production. Unfortunately, that never happened, although we sent the trailer to numerous studios.

The Government wants them in a lab and away from the people, while Kral., the leader of a militant group, who is determined to capture an alien spacecraft, believes the aliens will exchange a spacecraft for the Manimals.They face trouble from all sides as they fight to be accepted at Madison County High School.
