While we dig for more bones about the upcoming DVD release of the Dreamscape Cinema<\/strong><\/a> production SHEEBA<\/strong>, directed by Michael J. Jacobs<\/strong> and written and produced by C-U Blogfidential<\/strong> contributor Robin Christian<\/strong>, the best we can tell you about the product streeting nationwide on Tuesday, January 18<\/strong>, through Questar Home Video<\/strong> is that the finalized cover art has been appearing on Internet merchant sites. Behold:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The release title for this locally-made production, formerly known as CRAB ORCHARD<\/strong> (the fictional small town in which most of the film takes place) and SO OTHERS MAY LIVE<\/strong> (the real-life firefighter\u2019s motto), comes from the name of the dog given feisty young lad Clay (Dylan Patton<\/strong>) by his mother Kim (Ruby Handler<\/strong>) and grandfather Cecil (Ed Asner<\/strong>). While Sheeba helps warm the boy\u2019s heart to life in the Midwest after his emotional move away from New York City and workaholic fireman father Jim (Judge Reinhold<\/strong>), she does not figure prominently until the story\u2019s second half and has obviously been promoted to top dog in the film\u2019s marketing.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Strangely, the SHEEBA <\/strong>key art resembles that of a Disney <\/strong>\u201cwilderness adventure\u201d movie circa 1970, saturating the DVD cover with wholesomeness if the huge Dove Foundation<\/strong> \u201cseal of approval\u201d doesn\u2019t get the point across first<\/a>. This is hardly deceptive advertising since SHEEBA <\/strong>is a true family film and concludes with a protracted outdoors sequence set in the woods. We\u2019ll be curious to see how Christian\u2019s in-progress production, MY DOG THE SPACE TRAVELER<\/strong>, will be promoted once completed since it concentrates on yet another boy-and-his-dog tale set in forest environs.<\/p>\n

Until then, we have our first peek at SPACE TRAVELER<\/strong> courtesy of the following \u201ctrailer\u201d posted to Dreamscape\u2019s YouTube<\/strong> channel, which teases at the mysterious inter-dimensional portal discovered by science teacher parents, played by Chris Lemmon<\/strong> and Tonja Walker<\/strong>, and their son, portrayed by Logan Peters<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
