Under his direction, Illuminati Pictures has produced numerous media projects for Republican groups and causes. Mitchell is also a devoted Christian.

DIRECTOR
Since 2003, Mitchell has overseen over 100 commercial projects, documentaries, music videos, and short films.
In 2003, Mitchell directed a comedic short film about Japanese gangsters called "Lunch Money". The piece won an honorable mention in Japan's Laugh Out Loud Film Festival.
In 2004, he produced a documentary film about non-racist skinheads called "Spring Broke". The film featured performances and interviews with numerous Oi and punk rock bands, such as The Templars, Brass Knuckle Choir and Nation of Suspects.
In 2005, he directed the documentary "Dark Planet: Visions of America", which studied four areas of youth music subcultures across the United States.
In 2007, Mitchell began directing a film about the etiquette surrounding engagement and marriage called "The Golden Rules: A Modern Guide to Traditional Engagement". The film featured interviews with 7 Christian couples about how they met, got engaged, and planned their weddings, what they did right and what they did wrong. Molotov and Patricia Mitchell were one of the 7 couples interviewed. The film was released on DVD in fall 2008.
Also in 2007, Mitchell produced and hosted a Christian, political, comedy talk show called "Flamethrower", which aired nationally on Faith TV. One episode called "All Things Islam", which sharply criticized censorship in Islamic society, made several headlines for showing a likeness of the face of Muhammed on a cookie. The conservative news agency WorldNetDaily covered the episode days before it was to air. Faith TV, unfamiliar with controversy, opted to pull the episode. "I guess we'll just have to be pretty careful about how we address evil from now on," Mitchell told WND, who chose to air portions of the episode on their website.
In 2008, Molotov began directing episodes of the internet video series, "I Invented the Internet", which received over 20 million views and made headlines in the New York Times, American Thinker, MSNBC TV, Wired Magazine, Harper's, and other media agencies. In an email to supporters, Mitchell claimed that by combining the actual viewers and the media reporting on the episodes, "I Invented the Internet" reached between 50 and 100 million Americans during the election cycle.
Currently, Mitchell is working on an original film about civil rights.
PERSONAL
Mitchell was born in Columbia, South Carolina, but now resides in North Carolina with his wife Patricia. Molotov received his nickname from being an outspoken and often controversial figure. He has several tattoos, the most prominent being the word "ZEALOT" which is emblazoned across his right forearm in Old English.
From 1998-1999, Mitchell lived on the street to better understand homelessness in America. In multiple interviews, he has claimed that this experience opened his mind to spiritual contemplation and social corruption.
He has repeatedly stated his adamant opposition to abortion on demand, and contends that it the most important issue in American politics.
Molotov's work is outstanding and his understanding of the times we live in is unparalleled.
Crisp thinking and witty cracks make every new film of his I find something to look forward to.
Thanks for the great work!!

Molotov is just Hal Turner on weed instead of PCP. Just a washed-up actor turned shock jock who's interested in making a buck off of brainwashed cult comrades like Bruce, who are stupid enough to buy his crap and take it seriously. I'm sure he's laughing is ass off at how people are actually PAYING him to be a moron on the air.
Just goes to show you that, for every moron on TV or radio, there are 100s of even bigger morons responsible for their success. Molotov's just looking to make a buck, so I can't feel too sorry for him. It's his mentally, morally retarded fanbois who I really pity.

I have only recently become aware of Jason. I frankly find him to be a homophobic, opportunistic, manipulating fundamentalist . SHAMEFUL to so misrepresent the Name of Christ.

Will (above) is obviously a fudge-packing athiest with AIDS. SamTexas before him is a failed retard who hates capitalists and can't spell simple words yet.When it all falls apart Molotov and others will hunt them down and make indentured servants of them.
