After delivering albums from Ron Keel, Cold Sweat, The Fifth, and Crashing Wayward, RFK Media has branched out into the movie business, releasing the Mantaray Pictures feature film “Beginning Of The End” in time for Halloween and the 2025 holiday season.
The DVD edition is available to order now at RFKmediashop.com and streaming online on demand at patreon.com/ronkeel (premiering October 31st). The movie stars rocker Ron Keel, Playboy model Kaitlyn Jaynne, actress Melody Portnoy (daughter of Dream Theater drummer Mike Portnoy), and features a cameo by Mark “The Animal” Mendoza (ex-Twisted Sister).
“Beginning Of The End” made its theatrical premiere in July at the Edmonds Theatre in Washington. This movie is a collaboration between several independent filmmakers including award winning writer/director Terry R. Wickham (“Double Vision,” “Devil’s Five”), Jack Marziliano, and Zach Maldonado. It weaves together four short films rooted around the theme of Artificial Intelligence making people kill each other on the same night (in the same world) in almost linear time in different ways.
“Making the movie was a great experience,” Ron Keel comments. “I portray Ray, the next-door neighbor, an ordinary guy thrust into a very extraordinary situation. Not to give too much away, but there is some screaming involved, and I’ve had had a lot of practice acting like that!”
In addition to the film and the aforementioned music releases, RFK Media has new albums from Bad Marriage and Generation Landslide scheduled for 2026. There’s also a KEELWORLD comic book and other multi-media projects on the horizon.
Ron is available for interviews to discuss this and all RFK Media ventures – contact Jody Best, bestbetpromo@yahoo.com. Visit the landing page rfkmedia.com/beginningoftheend to view the official movie trailer, download images from the project, and more.
