When asked about the 4 wins at Shockfest, Cameron responded
with:
“I am so
honored that ‘Truth or Dare’ screened at my favorite LA horror film festival,
Shockfest. To win Best Actor and Best Director in my directorial debut is more
than I could have ever hoped. I’m so excited to see my fellow actors, Ryan
Kiser and Devanny Pinn win awards for my film since they worked so hard and
gave dynamic performances.”
The plot of the film revolves around 6 friends who find
internet stardom when they make “truth or dare” videos online. It is all fun
and games until their number one fan decides he wants to play. Nothing is what
it seems, and everyone has something to hide…

Higgins wrote one of the most disturbing, sickest, and down right disgusting
films from their deranged minds...and I LOVED every minute of it.” - Jacob Burman

great story!” -
