It’s true: Power 90 is not just for humans! To ensure we infuse some comedic muscle into this year’s “Retailers Rock”-themed Awards Gala—to be held on the evening of Tuesday, September 23—Under the Gun Productions has once again been busy creating another sock monkey short. Created by USC Film School Alum Rick Petry and Richard Perris, this year’s entry will be a follow up to last year’s short, “Home Shopping Havoc” that was part of “A Night At the Opera.” In case you missed it, below is the YouTube video for “Havoc!” See you at the show!

Rick Petry is ERA’s interim president and CEO.
