Deadly Cinema

Jami Deadly hosted her own show on NTTV.[8] The show follows characters located in an unknown cemetery. The show also featured Public Domain horror films that the main characters would heckle. Jami's co-stars included Alex Fuhrmann, Drew Edwards, Dante Martinez, Zack Beseda and Bryan Kelly. Writer, director, producer, editor and actor for the show, Matthew Muhl, states about making the show: "We made it, blood, sweat, tears, and all. But mostly blood".[8] The show aired its first episode in October 2003, and its final episode in October 2005.[8] The three-disc DVD set which includes the complete first and second seasons and video commentary, bloopers, advertisements and the half-hour retrospective documentary "Fade to Pink: The Making of Deadly Cinema" is currently available through MySpace.[8]

Deadly Cinema was prominently featured in "Vampira: The Movie", a 2006 documentary about the late Maila Nurmi, best known as Vampira, the very first horror host.

Deadly Cinema is currently in production of a comic book adaptation of "Deadly Cinema: The Movie", with art by Scott D.M. Simmons. It is scheduled for Christmas 2008 in celebration of the show's 5th Anniversary.

Deadly Cinema was awarded an NTTV Golden Television Award for "Best Entertainment Show" and a Texas Intercollegiate Press Association Award for "Best Television Production", both in 2005.

As Marilyn Monroe

Jami is also a well known Marilyn Monroe tribute artist.[9] She found Marilyn at an early age when she first saw, Some Like It Hot.[10] "I thought she was just incredible. She was so glamorous and talented. I was hooked" Jami says about Marilyn.[10] Jami appeared as Marilyn Monroe for the State Fair of Texas in 2006.[10] Jami's transformation into Marilyn Monroe hasn't been an easy one. A coach helped her coax her Texas twang into Marilyn's breathiness. She's taken singing and dancing lessons to perfect Marilyn's routines. And her blond hair requires weekly peroxide applications.[10] Jami continues to work as a Marilyn Monroe tribute artist.[11]
