Sprint Productions

Background : Sprint Productions was a production company ran by husband and wife team Howard Stemple and Zelda Artz-Stemple, formed in 1987. The company was dedicated to mid budget horror films. A majority of the company's films were shot in South Africa. Stemple would leave the company in 1990 and form Ironic Entertainment, with producer Mandy McDonald taking his place soon after. The company shut down in 1996 due to the financial failure of their last film, though the name would be revived as a shell label for Ironic when Stemple wanted to take his name off of the project.
