In Memory of Daniel Boyd
In honor of WV filmmaker Daniel Boyd and his recent passing, we wanted to share a unique piece of local film history.
In 1992, Boyd filmed Paradise Park right here in Saint Albans and cast wrestling legend Dusty Rhodes as a Kanawha County Deputy Sheriff. Yes, The American Dream himself wore the badge on screen.
Paradise Park is available to stream on Amazon Prime Video if you’d like to check it out.
