The Martinez Twins, award-winning horror writer-directors Joseph and Will Martinez, announced their next short horror film "Dance of the Spider Woman" will premiere on their YouTube channel at 12:01 a.m. EST Oct. 19.

This sexy and surprising 7-minute short stars and follows Nick Baga (La La Land) as The Husband on a late-night dog walk when he discovers The Woman co-star Yesenia Adame (Angels & Demons) in the window of a decrepit old house. Her enchanting beauty and strange dance keep him coming back. What does this mysterious woman in the window want and what will happen if she gets it?

Adame, the film's chorographer, and Baga are both dancers most known for their special guest appearances on ABC's "Dancing with the Stars". Dancer/Actor Nick Baga came recommended by Adame as the lead for the project.

"Music became the dialogue in this film," said Joseph. "With so little said, it was up to the actors and the composer to tell the bulk of the emotional story. Music for our short was composed by acclaimed Australian DJ Tyson Illingworth (DJ tyDi), whose electronic music tracks have topped dance charts around the world."

Successful completion and submission of "Dance of the Spider Woman" proved to be a creative springboard for Will and Joseph. They have gone on to expanded the Spider Woman universe into an anthology horror television series idea titled "The Condemned."

"Joe and I couldn't help ourselves," said Will. "We talked on the phone for hours creating the backstory of the spider. We realized there was a deep well of story yet to be told and we came up with a clever never-before-seen device of telling it. We can't wait to pitch!"

The Martinez Twins have made two other award-winning short horror films, "Knock" starring Arielle Brachfeld and Noelle Ann Mabry, and "I See You" starring China's Celina Jade (Arrow, Wolf Warrior 2).

Their next short horror project is a virtual reality film about betrayal and murder, told from the point-of-view of a housekeeping robot.
