Santa Clara, CA (PRWEB) December 31, 2006 -- Carma launches into film history as the first feature film to launch exclusively on the Internet via streaming DVD-quality pay per view. The edgy, award-winning supernatural thriller about how our actions can come back to haunt us has been compared favorably to the work of Alfred Hitchcock, Quentin Tarantino, and David Lynch. Carma features the voice of Academy Award(tm) nominated actress Karen Black (Five Easy Pieces, Easy Rider, The Great Gatsby) and a cast of "real people" including a San Quentin ex-convict.

... when the PR-ese - "breaking shackles," "revolutionary" - was reduced to English, I saw an only-in-Silicon-Valley story with lots of potential for far-reaching cultural change.

In a nutshell: Carma is a full-length (thriller) created ... by a pair of Silicon Valley software engineers. It was written on a Palm Pilot, filmed on a Panasonic 24p (...film-quality) digital camcorder, edited on a Macintosh laptop, and distributed by FastMovie.TV (an Internet pay-per-view system with DVD quality) as streaming video - no download wait. No Hollywood studios in sight. And that's the point.
