This was soon followed by Macon County Jail with David Carradine and Ally Sheedy, and Cry of the White Wolf for the Disney Channel. Next Victoria directed Teen Scorcery, a fun story about mischievous teenage witches that was shot in RomaniaThe Girl Who Could Fly began as a screenplay that was optioned by Paramount Pictures.
