These include his former dance partner Ginseng Roget (Kellyrose Mary), arch-rival Keane Shelley (Mark Ashin), stalking comedienne Katherine Heartburn (Emma Denson) and simpering British butler Simcox (Ed Altman). While dodging multiple murder attempts, Astoria first seeks advice from his close friends Carmen Miranda-Wright (Jasmine Dorothy Haefner) and Oscar Le Vile (Mark Parsia), then consults with private investigator Tyree Fingerlake (Xander Jackson), before finally visiting Janey Stompanelli (Sean Young), the mob's top enforcer in the City of Angels. Presented in black and white and set during the Golden Age of Hollywood, TOP HATE is written and produced by Joe Queenan (columnist at THE WALL STREET JOURNAL and author of 12 books including RED LOBSTER, WHITE TRASH AND THE BLUE LAGOON and IF YOU'RE TALKING TO ME, YOUR CAREER MUST BE IN TROUBLE) and directed by Michael Thomas Cain (writer and director of "Eliminated" and "Not Approved For Cancer Treatment"). It features a lush original score by Kinny Landrum, the Emmy-nominated composer, arranger and keyboard player whose talents are on full display in David Lynch's TWIN PEAKS, TWIN PEAKS: FIRE WALK WITH ME and WILD AT HEART). To top all that, TOP HATE stars the legendary Sean Young (BLADE RUNNER, NO WAY OUT, and DUNE). Written by Docepas Productions See less
