“Without a doubt, Mike Lane is one of the
most talented and versatile character actors of our time”

Horror Reviews
“He’s an amazing character
actor. His sense of timing is impeccable. Whether it’s improv or just
delivering what’s on the written page, he has come through for me every time.”

“The acting in the film is the strong point and we get some
of the best acting I've ever seen in an independent feature . . . Mike Lane as
Hubcap was not only who I thought to be the best character in the film, but
Lanes performance was outstanding. How any actor can act like he did in this
film takes a lot of talent. Not only did he have to act like a retarded
crackhead with berets in his hair, but he had to wear a pig costume also. How
he stayed in character is beyond me, because it takes talent to play a role like
that.

“Mike
Lane is one of the funniest actors that I have seen recently. His character of
Jimmy [in The Tenement] who thinks he’s turning into a werewolf, was both funny
and brutal. I am looking forward to seeing even more of his flicks.”
-Kristy Langford,

“Mike
Lane brilliantly pulls this one off. I actually believed he was turning into a
werewolf… The acting of Mike Lane reminded me of a live action version of the
South Park character Tweak, only cranked up.”

“Lane
gives a wonderfully funny performance as a man in love with the power and
fantasy of being a hairy beast.”

“The
werewolf story is a real gem, it’s about a neurotic guy that gets crazier as the
scene goes on. Toward the end he’s such an over-the-top nut that the dialog got
several laughs from me, just on the delivery alone.”
-The Horrorist,

“This
one’s [The Tenement] also got a really wicked sense of humor and a great actor
named Mike Lane filling the lead. He’s got a knack for spur of the moment
improv, having spat out some really clever lines right there on the spot that I
think will help this tale stand apart from the others.”

“For ‘The Blood Shed’ I simply cast the best damn actors in
the horror indie business today. My good luck granted me Joshua Nelson, Terry
M. West, Mike Lane and Susan Adriensen - all who play my family.”

Mike is one of the most talented people that I have had the pleasure to work
with. He is a versatile actor whose not afraid of a challenge. He'll dive
right in and do what needs to be done for the sake of the character. Some of
the best times that I can remember working on Fear of the Dark were when
Mike was on or around the set. His personality and his humorous antics created
a great sense of friendship in the cast and crew. Never once did he complain.
Well, maybe once, if you count his plea for air when I forgot he was in a closed
casket (in the funeral scene) and left him there.
It has been a great experience working with him. He made my job an easy one on
Fear of the Dark (my first movie). And when I was tossing around ideas
for the next project, he inspired me as to how to portray his character in The
Tenement. I think his role as Jimmy Wayne Garrick is one of the highlights of
the movie. And with Fairview Falls, Mike has cemented our friendship.
Morning, noon and night he was there for me - a shining example of the
dedication he has for his craft.
