Music Video Director Morocco Vaughn Makes Debut on the Big Screen with Twisted Thriller ‘Mollywood’

High-powered music video director Morocco Vaughn is well known in industry circles for his innovative music videos for top recording artists like Kanye West, Waka Flocka Flame, French Montana, Snoop Dogg and more. Now, the Chicago native has taken his talents to the big screen and is making his film directorial debut with the new psycho thriller, Mollywood, set for release on June 4^th.

The movie, written by Ken Hoyd, features rapper and first time actor Waka Flocka Flame, who also curated the soundtrack for the film. Additional names include Emmy Award Winning TV Personality Billy Dec, Hip Hop producer London on Da Track, Lesile Lopez, Micah Fitzgerald, Vinicius Machado and Black Ink Crew Chicago star Charmaine Johnise.

“This movie was a fun one to shoot,” said Vaughn. “I had worked with Waka on previous projects and the opportunity came for a film so I asked him to be a part of it. He instantly agreed. He brought a lot to the cast, which is very diverse. The talent is from everywhere. We have African American, White, Filipino and also Brazilian. There is a lot of flavor in this movie.”

Shot in Chicago and Atlanta, Mollywood follows a serial killer who disguises himself as a drug dealer in order to provide EDM partygoers with their desired drugs before killing them. During the movie, the serial killer is followed by a detective determined to bring him down. The intense flick is not one for the faint of heart and will certainly have viewers on the edge of their seats.

Distributed by Momentum Pictures, an Entertainment One company, Mollywood is expected to be well received and quite possibly become a cult classic. The verdict will be in soon enough. Movie goers will have the opportunity to view the movie ahead of the release date at exclusive screenings in Atlanta on May 30^th and Chicago on June 2^nd.

“I believe I bring something unique to the film industry with my background directing high caliber music videos. I am excited to see the response from this movie. But, this is only the beginning, expect a lot more from me,” Vaughn said.
