Jeremiah Films

Jeremiah Films is a low-budget production company headed by Christian conservative activist Patrick Matrisciana, based in Westminster, California.

Jeremiah Films produces videos that the group says promotes patriotism, traditional values, family values and the "biblical worldview of the founding fathers" of the United States. It has produced films critical of subjects as varied as terrorism, paganism, evolution, Mormonism (blood atonement), Seventh-day Adventism, Harry Potter, stem cell research, Hallowe'en, homosexuality, and the Clinton Presidency "Clinton Chronicles".

The company produces videos such as "Harry Potter: Witchcraft Repackaged" about the "repackaging of Witchcraft in probably its most dangerous form - children's fantasy literature", "Baby Parts For Sale", an "investigation into the multi-million dollar a year baby parts trafficking industry" and stem cell research, and "Halloween: Trick or Treat?" that challenges parents "to decide whether to allow their children to participate in celebrations which glorify Pagan Occultism". The company also produced and distributes the videos "AIDS: What You Haven't Been Told" investigating the "homosexual cover-up" and "Gay Rights Special Rights" both of which were briefly banned in New Zealand. More recently 'Hillary uncensored! Banned by the Media' telling the Peter F Paul story and includes Gala Hollywood Farewell Salute to President Clinton.

In 1996, Patrick Matrisciana, the founder of Jeremiah Films and an organization called Citizens for an Honest Government, produced a video called "Obstruction of Justice: The Mena Connection". It claimed that two police officers with links to then Arkansas Governor Bill Clinton were implicated in drug trafficking, two murders, and a cover-up of the murders. The police officers sued Matrisciana for defamation and won an award of $598,750. In 1999, [http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=14790] the award was overturned after Matrisciana appealed to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit [http://www.ca8.uscourts.gov/opndir/01/07/001411P.pdf] . He won in appeals court; the three-judge panel saying: Campbell and Lane being public officials bear the burden of proving statements made by a defendant are false, and failed to meet that standard. [http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=23737] In addition the Judge also said a public figure plaintiff must also prove malice they did not.
