Synopsis

Abandoned, abused by the police and in the throes of withdrawal, Nadine, a drug addicted young prostitute, returns to her childhood home and the mother she ran away from. Nadine’s mother, Delilah; a fanatical Christian who believes demons have possessed her daughter, searches for a “cure” for Nadine’s erratic behavior. When she finds a rogue preacher willing to exorcise her daughter for a fee, neither realizes they have invited the devil into their home. While her mother turns a blind eye to the bizarre practices unfolding in her own home, Nadine, wracked with mental and physical pain, has no choice but to put up with the preacher’s increasingly violent charade.

Here's a message from the filmmakers encouraging you to support their project.

Mugworth Productions has launched an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign to raise money for their latest production, a horror anthology titled Zombificador. Supporters can donate anywhere from $1 to $5,000. Perks include producer credits, limited edition Blu-rays, autographed posters and scripts, memorabilia and even an appearance the movie. All contributors are also invited to appear in a DVD featurette.

Upon successfully securing the funding, iconic filmmaker Herschell Gordon Lewis has agreed to return to the director's chair for Zombificador. Lewis is affectionately known as the "Godfather of Gore" after making such classic splatter fests as Two Thousand Maniacs, Blood Feast, Color Me Blood Red and The Wizard of Gore. Now he's ready to create what promises to be his bloodiest movie ever!

Lewis will direct from a script written by Marc Fernandez. Zombificador is an old-fashioned anthology movie with five interconnecting stories. From big, fat monsters with the ability of transforming people into savage creatures, to human-sized mutant bugs, along with talking puppets and silent psycho killers, Zombificador has it all. The movie will utilize traditional, practical special effects.

Genre favorites Bill Moseley (The Devil's Rejects, Repo! The Genetic Opera), Michael Berryman (The Hills Have Eyes, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest) and Todd Farmer (My Bloody Valentine, Jason X) are attached to star in the film. Other recognizable faces are in talks to be involved.

With a great filmmaker, script and cast all in place, the only thing missing from Zombificador is funding. Production will begin as soon as financing is in place, so bid generously at igg.me/at/zombificador

Producers Brad Lavery and Mike De Trana, along with award-winning director Dan Riesser, have launched a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign seeking finishing funds for their independently-financed feature film Stomping Ground. The campaign began on March 11th and runs until April 9th. Nearly half of the $15,000 goal has already been raised. The film is seeking financing to aid with editing, color correction, sound design and visual FX.

Stomping Ground can best be described as a “scary relationship comedy about love and Bigfoot hunting.” It tells the story of Ben and Annie, a couple living in Chicago, on a weekend trip to Annie's small North Carolina hometown. At the local bar they run into Paul, an old friend of Annie's, and Ben learns something he never knew about his girlfriend: She believes in Bigfoot. In fact, she and her friends used to "hunt" for the creature when they were kids. Before Ben knows it, he's off on an impromptu Squatchin' trip deep in the Carolina backwoods. Amidst the Squatch calls, campfire stories and beers, Ben quickly realizes that Paul may have an ulterior motive in bringing Annie to the woods. And something else out here seems to be after her as well. Everyone but Ben thinks its Bigfoot. But it can't be, can it? After all, Bigfoot isn't real...

Stomping Ground is was shot in October 2012 in North Carolina, mostly in the Uwharrie National Forest, an area well known for its Bigfoot sightings. The film stars an amazing cast including John Bobek, Tarah DeSpain, Jeramy Blackford and Justin Giddings. It also features a special appearance by Theresa Tilly, who is best known for her role in Sam Raimi's horror classic, The Evil Dead. Among the exciting prizes, Kickstarter pledgers have the opportunity to receive a signed piece of Evil Dead memorabilia from the actress. Read an update regarding Tilly's involving in Stomping Ground here.

Press Release:

The New Neighbor is about a college student & her brother (Ky Mahone) who notice a puzzling epidemic sweeping their neighborhood timed to the arrival of a new neighbor. Everyone starts to turns pale, they act anemic, they avoid sunlight and they might have a strange bite mark on their neck. They become convinced that the new neighbor is slowly turning everyone into vampires. To complicate matters, sis finds herself inexplicably drawn to the neighbor's son (Ryan Sandefur). Is she a moth being drawn to the film? Or is there a greater evil at work?

What makes our take on the vampire film unique?

Instead of just focusing on vampires biting people, we put the emphasizes on suspense, mystery & the sexy perks of being able to take control of ones mind through the vampiric seduction, and how it would affect a girl that is suspicious of a vampiric outbreak in her small friendly neighborhood, only to be thrown off of by being involuntarily being drawn to and being caught in the middle of a dangerously steamy affair with the one guy she is so worried about?

We also put an emphasizes on how a vampire outbreak would affect people, how it would change the lives of a small community.

How Kickstarter works:

If our campaign is successful, we will have enough money through Kickstarter contributions and private investments so that we can film The New Neighbor in January 2013.

If this Kickstarter campaign does not meet its funding goal, we do not get to keep one single cent. Kickstarter is ALL or NOTHING, meaning that we have to raise 100% of the funds.

You decide on which reward you want to claim or what amount you want to contribute. Kickstarter will bill you $1. At the end of the campaign, if we have reached our funding goal, you will be billed for what you pledged. If not, then no one gets billed. Even if you don't have the money today, as long as you have it by Nov. 5, 2012, you can take part in this campaign and choose a pledge amount.

"Satan Hates You" director James Felix McKenney recently send us over information for this upcoming film "Villain". The film the story of a psychotic killer who hunts the "real life superheroes" of New York City. The film stars The Super Sucklord, who received mainstream notoriety for his appearance on the second season of Bravo TV's "Work of Art: The Next Great Artist."

The filmmakers are hoping to raise the film's modest budget by way of a Kickstarter campaign. "In this current climate, I just can't look an investor in the eye and tell them that any film is going to make them their money back," McKenney says. "At the moment, crowdfunding is really the only honest way to raise money for an independent project like this.

As an incentive, The Sucklord has created a VILLAIN-specific series of his signature bootleg figures and other Suckadelic items that will only be available to supporters of the project.

For more about these items and some words on the film from The Sucklord himself, please visit the VILLAIN Kickstarter page:

Press Release:

MonsterPants is proud to announce that the sixth feature film by DIY auteur James Felix McKenney (AUTOMATONS, HYPOTHERMIA) will be the dark thriller, VILLAIN.

VILLAIN tells the story of a psychotic killer who hunts the "real life superheroes" of New York City.

"VILLAIN came from my own reaction to seeing news stories about these real life superheroes a few years back," says the director. "The first thing that popped into my head was that these were just a bunch of urban attention seekers who could never hold their own against a real threat. I started thinking about what kind of a person would be the real world equivalent of a super-criminal and VILLAIN was born."

Playing the titular character is designer toy artist, The Super Sucklord, who received mainstream notoriety for his appearance on the second season of Bravo TV's "Work of Art: The Next Great Artist."

McKenney explains how this collaboration came to be, "VILLAIN was originally meant to be this bigger, nation-spanning film. But one night I was hanging out in the Sucklord's lair listening to him rant about some topic that is dear to him and it hit me: Here's this really smart guy who's already a self-styled super villain with his own little hideout and lots of strong opinions about how the world should be, and that was it. I found my VILLAIN."

With this revelation, McKenney scaled-back the production to a gritty, ground level project set in New York City that stays true to both artists' DIY roots and aesthetic. The film takes inspiration from early digital video and Asian horror and serial killer movies from the 1990's and early 2000's. The filmmakers will be using a wide range of equipment, ranging from current hi-definition RED cameras to old video tape technology from decades past to give the film a jarring, disjointed look to give the audience a glimpse into the mind of a madman.

The film's director of photography is Eric Branco and Lisa Wisely is producing. Both have worked with McKenney on earlier film projects.

The filmmakers are hoping to raise the film's modest budget by way of a Kickstarter campaign. "In this current climate, I just can't look an investor in the eye and tell them that any film is going to make them their money back," McKenney says. "At the moment, crowdfunding is really the only honest way to raise money for an independent project like this.
