Steven Vasquez is a producer, director, cinematographer and editor, known for Sideline Secrets (2008), Triple Crossed (2013) and Eroddity(s) (2015). Born in Anaheim, California to Mike and Hope Vasquez, Stevens early interests were building homemade haunted houses, going to Disneyland and making home movies. Steven loved film though he never aspired to a Hollywood career. His dream was to make small low budget movies in his home and local neighborhoods and maybe build a small following. That dream was long in coming when he went to work at AT&T in order to support his new family. 12 years later in his early 30s he was diagnosed with schizophrenia. Unable to work and at the urging of his Doctor he took up a very expensive hobby - Filmmaking. Over the course of a year and a half he made his first short film Rose and Alexander. He was in the hospital when he learned his film was selected to show at a festival. He won Best Short film and Best Director. More important then the awards though was his new friendship with Laura Reilly, the films lead. She became his muse and guiding light through several dark times. Steven has learned to use his affliction in a most artistic fashion. To say his dark mostly erotic films are non linear is an understatement. One reviewer said of his film A Siren in the DarK. "There are plot holes you can drive a Mack truck through and the editor must have been on crack, but still you must see this film!" Steven has four children and is a proud grandfather of one. Although he's gay he has been faithfully married to his wife Sandra for over 35 years.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
