Directors Paul Della Pelle and Adonis Cruz are bringing us Lizard Boy, from Cinema Epoch.
Hired by Defense Science Office agents to create a genetic hybrid by combining rhesus monkey and reptile DNA, renowned geneticist, Gino Conti (Pete Punito) becomes suspicious of the government’s intentions and sets out to sabotage their seemingly diabolical plan.
Plagued by personal inadequacies and memories of his tragic past, Dr. Conti makes the experiment his own by injecting human DNA into the mix, creating a half-human half-reptile hybrid he then raises as his son.
Family life goes on fairly normally with a son heavy into mixed martial arts, internet dating, and catching and eating local wildlife. But parenting becomes a real challenge when the son, Carlo, develops a taste for human blood.
When a local couple is found viciously murdered, the government agents and local law enforcement suspect things amiss at T-Gen labs, and...

Oh crazy scientists, when will they learn not to play God? Not any time soon, if Lizard Boy has anything to say about it. Where else would we see abominations of science and nature occur?
Other than reality TV and Walmarts.
Filmmakers Paul Della Pelle and Adonis Cruz's contribution to the mad scientist genre, Lizard Boy, is finally making its way to your home to add to the mayhem. The horror-thriller has found distribution through Cinema Epoch and will be available August 30th.
Lizard Boy is the story of the creation of a new life form, bred from combining a rhesus monkey and reptile DNA. And it promises to deliver on all the weirdness you would expect from a movie named Lizard Boy
I mean, have you ever seen a half-monkey/half-lizard doing Mma? I didn't think so.
You can keep up with all things related to this film...

The Marché is the film market at Cannes. It’s below and at the back of the Palaise, which holds the main theaters and press area, . All kinds of films are sold in the Marché. All kinds. It has a reputation, somewhat deserved, of playing host to film that might seem out of keeping with the austere, high-class affair one associates with Cannes. But the companies and the Marché are as much a part of the experience of Cannes as the red steps.
Here’s a gallery of just some of the titles being presented:
Some of these films have been made. Others are just seeking $$ to get made, on the title alone. Like who wouldn’t want to see “Lizard Boy?” Vampire Girl vs. Frankenstein Girl, however, is a known title and was out in 2009. See, this is why the Academy Must revisit their policies concerning Best Foreign Film.

Senators Sam Brownback of Kansas and Mary Landrieu of Louisiana co-sponsored the Human-Animal Hybrid Prohibition Act of 2009 this past July that, if passed, will make illegal genetic experiments creating new species from animal and human DNA. Don't be surprised if one of them screens the new film Lizard Boy on the Senate floor. It's their worst nightmare: a scientist mixes human and lizard DNA, the lizard boy grows up and goes on a rampage, and - worst of all - it has a black belt in lizard tail fu.
Lizard Boy is the creation of first-time writer/director Paul Della Pelle (and his co-writer Bruce Brown, who also co-stars as the sheriff). In it, a small mountain town is terrorized by a half-man, half-reptile creature when renowned geneticist Dr. Gino Conti, contracted by the Defense Sciences Office to develop a top-secret hybrid animal, pursues personal experiments in an effort to reconcile his tragic past.
