Devi Snively has led several lives over the years. She’s worked as a translator, writer, editor, ballerina, adjunct professor…you know, the usual stuff. But all that life experience is taking a backseat to her latest career choice: filmmaker. While Snively has done a little bit of everything, it’s her work in the cinematic arts that is earning awards and garnering attention for this talented woman.
I first became acquainted with La Snively’s work last March at the Pretty Scary Blood Bath Film Festival. I’d previously seen her name but had only a vague notion of who she was. Then I saw her short film Death in Charge, and I realized she was a talent to be reckoned with. I made a note to check out her work and moved on to other things. Imagine my delight when, a couple of months later,...

Award-winning genre filmmaker Devi Snively's next film will be a neo-noir called Last Seen on Dolores Street. Snively's previous work includes Raven Gets a Life, Death in Charge, Teenage Bikini Vampire, Trippin', Meat is Murder, and Confederate Zombie Massacre.
Last Seen on Dolores Street will be "a 2-minute horror noir film that will hopefully actually be disturbing and scary as opposed to our usual whimsical lighthearted approach to horror," says Snively. "I'm both very excited and very nervous - this is a whole new territory for me."...
