                                     PART I

               INFORMATION REQUIRED BY THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

ITEM 1.  PLAN INFORMATION.

     Epicus Communications Group, Inc. has previously entered into agreements
with officers, directors, third party consultants and attorneys for the issuance
of our common stock in exchange for services these individuals provided. In
consideration for increasing the scope of the continuing services rendered and
to be rendered to the us until such time as we generate sufficient cash flow
from operations, and in order to compensate our consultants and attorneys, we
prepared this Form S-8 registration statement to provide for the issuance of
shares, as described below.

     We have agreed to issue five million shares (5,000,000) for continued
corporate consulting and legal services to us, and for compensation to certain
officers and directors.

ITEM 2.  REGISTRANT INFORMATION AND EMPLOYEE PLAN ANNUAL INFORMATION.

     We shall provide consultants and attorneys and certain officers and
directors, without charge upon their written or oral request, the documents
incorporated by reference herein in Item 3 of Part II of this Registration
Statement. We shall also provide the consultants, attorneys and certain officers
and directors, without charge, upon their written or oral request, with all
other documents required to be delivered to them pursuant to Rule 428(b) under
the Act. Any and all such requests shall be directed to us at our place of
business as reflected in this Registration Statement.

                                     PART II

                 INFORMATION REQUIRED IN REGISTRATION STATEMENT

ITEM 3.  INCORPORATION OF DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE.

     The following documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commissions
are incorporated herein by reference:

     (a)  The Registrant's latest annual report on Form 10-KSB/A for the fiscal
          year ended May 31, 2002, filed on November 16, 2002.

     (b)  All other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the
          Securities Exchange Act of 1934 since the end of the fiscal year
          covered by the Form 10-KSB referred to in (a) above.

     (c)  A description of our activities and common stock contained in exhibits
          to our filing pursuant to the previously stated 10-KSB/A in (a),
          above.

     All documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections
13(a), 13(c), 14, and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a
post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered have been
sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed
to be incorporated by reference in the registration statement and to be part
thereof from the date of filing of such documents.

ITEM 4.  DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

     We are registering up to 5,000,000 shares of our common stock, par value of
$0.001 per share. Each holder of our common stock is entitled to one vote per
share of common stock standing in such holder's name on our records on each
matter submitted to a vote of our stockholders, except as otherwise required by
law. Holders of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights so that
the holders of more than 50% of the combined shares of our common stock voting
for the election of directors may elect all of the directors if they choose to
do so and, in that event, the holders of the remaining shares of our common
stock will not be able to elect any members to our board of directors. Holders
of our common stock are entitled to equal dividends and distributions, per
share, when, as and if declared by our board of directors from funds legally
available. Holders of our common stock do not have pre-emptive rights to
subscribe for any of our securities nor are any shares of our common stock
redeemable or convertible into any of our other securities. If we liquidate,
dissolve or wind up our business or affairs, our assets will be divided up
pro-rata on a share-for-share basis among the holders of our common stock after
creditors and preferred shareholders, if any, are paid.

ITEM 5.  INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

     L. Van Stillman, Esq. of the Law Firm of L. Van Stillman, PA will receive
shares registered in this S-8 Registration Statement as compensation for
services rendered to the Registrant, not in connection with any offering of the
securities of the Registrant.

ITEM 6.  INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS.

     Our Articles of Incorporation as well as our By-Laws provide for the
indemnification of directors, officers, employees and agents of the corporation
to the fullest extent provided by the Corporate Law of the State of Florida, as
well as is described in the Articles of Incorporation and the By-Laws. These
sections generally provide that the Company may indemnify any person who was or
is a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative except for an action by
or in right of corporation by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a
director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation. Generally, no
indemnification may be made where the person has been determined to be negligent
or guilty of misconduct in the performance of his or her duties to the Company.

ITEM 7.  EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED.

     Not Applicable

ITEM 8.  EXHIBITS.

23.2 Consent of Independent Certified Public Accountants - Wieseneck, Andres &
     Company, P. A.

ITEM 9.  UNDERTAKINGS.

     We hereby undertake:

     1.  To include any material information with respect to the plan of
         distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or
         any material change to such information in the Registration Statement.

     2.  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
         post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement.

     3.  That for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
         Act of 1933, as amended, each such post-effective amendment shall be
         deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities
         offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall
         be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

     We hereby undertake that, for the purposes of determining any liability
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, each filing of our Annual Report
pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual
report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a
new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling
persons of Epicus Communications Group, Inc., pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the we have been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a
claim against such liabilities (other than payment by us of expenses paid or
incurred by a director, officer or controlling person of us in the successful
defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer
or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we
will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by
controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.

PART I

               INFORMATION REQUIRED BY THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

ITEM 1.  PLAN INFORMATION.

     Epicus Communications Group, Inc. has previously entered into agreements
with officers, directors, third party consultants and attorneys for the issuance
of our common stock in exchange for services these individuals provided. In
consideration for increasing the scope of the continuing services rendered and
to be rendered to the us until such time as we generate sufficient cash flow
from operations, and in order to compensate our consultants and attorneys, we
prepared this Form S-8 registration statement to provide for the issuance of

     We have agreed to issue five million shares (5,000,000) for continued
corporate consulting and legal services to us, and for compensation to certain
officers and directors.

ITEM 2.  REGISTRANT INFORMATION AND EMPLOYEE PLAN ANNUAL INFORMATION.

     We shall provide consultants and attorneys and certain officers and
directors, without charge upon their written or oral request, the documents
incorporated by reference herein in Item 3 of Part II of this Registration
Statement. We shall also provide the consultants, attorneys and certain officers
and directors, without charge, upon their written or oral request, with all
other documents required to be delivered to them pursuant to Rule 428(b) under
the Act. Any and all such requests shall be directed to us at our place of
business as reflected in this Registration Statement.

                 INFORMATION REQUIRED IN REGISTRATION STATEMENT

ITEM 3.  INCORPORATION OF DOCUMENTS BY REFERENCE.

     The following documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commissions
are incorporated herein by reference:

     (a)  The Registrant's latest annual report on Form 10-KSB/A for the fiscal
          year ended May 31, 2002, filed on November 16, 2002.

     (b)  All other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the
          Securities Exchange Act of 1934 since the end of the fiscal year
          covered by the Form 10-KSB referred to in (a) above.

     (c)  A description of our activities and common stock contained in exhibits
          to our filing pursuant to the previously stated 10-KSB/A in (a),
          above.

     All documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections

ITEM 4.  DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

share of common stock standing in such holder's name on our records on each
matter submitted to a vote of our stockholders, except as otherwise required by
law. Holders of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights so that
the holders of more than 50% of the combined shares of our common stock voting
for the election of directors may elect all of the directors if they choose to
do so and, in that event, the holders of the remaining shares of our common
stock will not be able to elect any members to our board of directors. Holders
of our common stock are entitled to equal dividends and distributions, per
share, when, as and if declared by our board of directors from funds legally
available. Holders of our common stock do not have pre-emptive rights to
subscribe for any of our securities nor are any shares of our common stock
redeemable or convertible into any of our other securities. If we liquidate,
dissolve or wind up our business or affairs, our assets will be divided up
pro-rata on a share-for-share basis among the holders of our common stock after
creditors and preferred shareholders, if any, are paid.

     L. Van Stillman, Esq. of the Law Firm of L. Van Stillman, PA will receive
shares registered in this S-8 Registration Statement as compensation for
services rendered to the Registrant, not in connection with any offering of the
securities of the Registrant.

ITEM 6.  INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS.

     Our Articles of Incorporation as well as our By-Laws provide for the
indemnification of directors, officers, employees and agents of the corporation
to the fullest extent provided by the Corporate Law of the State of Florida, as
well as is described in the Articles of Incorporation and the By-Laws. These
sections generally provide that the Company may indemnify any person who was or
is a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding
whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative except for an action by
or in right of corporation by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a
director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation. Generally, no
indemnification may be made where the person has been determined to be negligent
or guilty of misconduct in the performance of his or her duties to the Company.

ITEM 9.  UNDERTAKINGS.

     We hereby undertake:

     1.  To include any material information with respect to the plan of
         distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or
         any material change to such information in the Registration Statement.

     2.  To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
         post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement.

     3.  That for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
         Act of 1933, as amended, each such post-effective amendment shall be
         deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities
         offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall
         be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

     We hereby undertake that, for the purposes of determining any liability
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, each filing of our Annual Report
pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual
report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a
new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling
persons of Epicus Communications Group, Inc., pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the we have been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a
claim against such liabilities (other than payment by us of expenses paid or
incurred by a director, officer or controlling person of us in the successful
defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer
or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we
will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by
controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.
