The Soska sisters have always loved film. Above all, they had a special place in their twisted little hearts for horror. In elementary school, they began reading Stephen King novels, much to the dismay of their teachers. They would go to video stores and sneak over to the horror selection and look at the backs of all the boxes. When they'd find a "good one", they'd call the other over and then convince their mom to let them take it home. Not satisfied with the stereotypical roles often presented to identical twins, they set out to expand their horizons.

Dead Hooker In A Trunk was their debut film. The twins wrote, directed, produced, starred in, and preformed the stunts for the film. They took lessons learned from Rodriguez's book, Rebel Without A Crew, on how film making could be done on a modest budget if you have the creativity and ambition to make your film. The film so followed the spirit of El Mariachi, that the twins' story reached the original El Mariachi, Carlos Gallardo, who not only gave the ladies advice but also appeared in the film in the appropriate role as God. The film has been embraced by grindhouse fans, associated specialist film festivals and reviewers, being called "a hidden gem in indie film making and a cult classic in waiting". Yet their work has been eschewed by the mainstream.

The film has been shown at numerous film festivals reviewed by horror sites including Gorezone, Fangoria, Bloody Disgusting, and Ax Wound just to name a few.

On December 11th of 2007, the sisters formed a production company: Twisted Twins Productions. Always knowing that Dead Hooker in a Trunk was the first project of many to come, the twins wanted to create their own label from which all future projects would come. Since that time, they have gone on to make a feature-length documentary that follows the lives of four viral, YouTube personalities entitled, Please Subscribe, a PSA to raise awareness for blood donation during February's Women In Horror Month, multiple short films - The Hornet, Doppelganger, and Bad Girls - that show not only their style of horror but also their sense of humour, and several scripts of future feature films including - American Mary, The Man Who Kicked Ass, and Bob
