Arlen Alexander Escarpeta (born April 9, 1981) is a Belizean actor.
In 2004, Escarpeta earned critical acclaim for his breakout film role as an honor student caught with a handgun at school in the independent drama American Gun. The film, which premiered at the Toronto Film Festival, also starred Forrest Whitaker, Marcia Gay Harden and Donald Sutherland. The following year, he co-starred with Matthew McConaughey and Matthew Fox in McG's true-life drama We Are Marshall, about the aftermath of the 1970 plane crash that killed Marshall University's football team.
Escarpeta was more recently seen in David Wain's comedy, The Ten, which premiered at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival. He had earlier appeared in Carls Franklin's coutroom thriller High Crimes, starring Morgan Freeman and Ashely Judd.
Escarpeta first gained attention on the small screen when he starred in the NBC series American Dreams. He played Sam Walker, a young black man dealing with the changing times of the turbulent '60s. His television work also includes guest roles in on such series as Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Without A Trace, Cold Case, Judging Amy, ER, The Shield, Boomtown, 7th Heaven and Boston Public.
In 2009 he played Lawrence, in the horror slasher Friday the 13th. Arlen follows Friday the 13th with leading roles in several features. He next stars in the drama Roslyn, followed by Preston Whitmore's Dough Boys. He also stars as a young LAPD officer on patrol during the racial gang war in the drama 818, on which Escarpeta also serves co-producer. Escarpeta has also been cast in Final Destination 5, the fifth film in the hit horror franchise.

Lovely, sexy, and spirited blonde sprite Kristi Somers was born on May 9, 1962 in Encino, California. Somers graduated from Fullerton Union High School in Fullerton, California and went on to attend Fullerton College. Kristi first began acting in movies in 1983. With her comely face, winning smile, firm, shapely figure, sardonic, yet sunny and upbeat personality, and extremely energetic and engaging screen presence, Somers greatly enlivened a handful of enjoyably lowbrow low-budget B-flicks made throughout the 1980's. Kristi was especially memorable and impressive as the sassy'n'spunky "Michelle" in the blithely crude and leering sex comedy cult favorite Hardbodies (1984). She was very funny as the brash "Seville Ritz" in the entertainingly silly Tomboy (1985) and amusingly snotty as the stuck-up "Rikki" in the delightful Girls Just Want to Have Fun (1985). Moreover, Somers made guest appearances on such TV shows as Charles in Charge (1984), Cheers (1982), Full House (1987) and My Two Dads (1987). After a regrettable thirteen-year hiatus from acting, Somers made a welcome comeback with a sizable supporting role in the indie drama, The Substance of Things Hoped For (2006).
