"Six genres in a head-on collision!"
--Brad Linaweaver,
publisher, Mondo Cult

"In 2010 they'll call it the 'cult classic of 2007' ...
If you're looking for a conventional movie, Lady Magdalene's isn't it. This genre-bending film is a quirky mixture of pop culture parody, politically incorrect humor, and action adventure thriller. It's high concept camp, with Star Trek's Nichelle Nichols in the title role as a singing, dancing operator of a Nevada brothel who helps foil an al-Qa'ida plot. Like those films that become cult favorites, some people won't get it but others will find Lady Magdalene's to be more engaging and entertaining every time they see it."
--Robert Schneider,
author of Shylock the Roman

"Nichelle's still got it! I've watched the trailer and her music video more times than I can count. I especially love the video where they show her doing the full version of 'Rahab the Harlot'. The woman still has it after all these years and what a voice! And Nichelle Nichols can get a witness on that from me any day."

Log Line: In this action comedy, Jack Goldwater, an IRS agent on loan to the Federal Air Marshal Service, is relieved of field duty after insulting a powerful U.S. Senator, and finds himself exiled to a humiliating desk job in Nevada as the federal receiver managing a legal brothel in tax default, where -- with the help of the brothel Madam, Lady Magdalene (Nichelle Nichols) -- he uncovers an Al Qaeda plot to unload a nuclear-bomb-sized crate at Hoover Dam.

Lady Magdalene's is the first feature film from award-winning novelist and journalist, J. Neil Schulman, who produced, wrote, and directed it.  He also wrote one of the best remembered episodes of the 1980's revived Twilight Zone TV series, exploring the JFK assassination.

 Lady Magdalene's stars Nichelle Nichols, the first African-American woman ever to participate in an interracial kiss shown on American network television, as well as being an icon for her role as Uhura on Star Trek, and before that discovered at age 14 by Duke Ellington and later hailed by Paris music critics as the next Josephine Baker.

J. Neil Schulman wrote the screenplay of Lady Magdalene's to combine Nichelle Nichols' unexplored acting range with her deep musical background.
