Ursula plays the controversial role of Dareen in the award-winning film, Rabia. The film is about a woman who must blow herself up in order to exist. From the moment she straps explosives to her bare body, we are exposed to flashbacks of Rabia’s past, filled with abuse, rejection, and struggle. With detonator in hand, we find ourselves asking whether Rabia’s act is one of evil or one of heroism?

It's here... Carver is now available on DVD in both a rated (R) and un-rated "Grisly" version (latter recommended)!! Rent it or buy it (Hollywood Video, Blockbuster, Netflix, Best Buy, Barnes & Noble, Target, Movie Gallery).
"Carver" depicts the real life events of five 20 somethings that went camping in the mountain town of Halcyon Ridge and never returned. Based on State Police reports, they and countless others found themselves the unwitting subjects of bizarre "snuff" films that were found on the old Carver family stockyard property. It is a case of life imitating art and art imitating DEATH. For more information, please visit
