Another shot from our vampire shoot with the graceful Kylie Maree who was a true pleasure to work with, taking direction and at times remaining in seemingly uncomfortable positions for a while to allow us to get the perfect shot. The live-action comic is currently in production and the feature film is nearly at casting!

Looking back on our past productions. Babaroga was a lot of fun to make with an incredible cast and brilliant crew. We filmed some scenes in a pedestrian tunnel under the Warrego Highway which was a challenge and had a beautiful backdrop for the detectives in the rural town of Laidley.

Continuing our research into good and bad vampire films in readiness for our film production. 1971’s The Velvet Vampire. Gratuitous nudity and bad acting from the main couple aside, we did love the vampire and the scene of her coming down the escalators at the bus stop towards the end was really a nice creepy touch.

As we prepare for tonight's vampire-themed photo shoot we are going over our old back catalogue of films to get us pumped. Dark Masquerade was a lot of fun to film. The location was amazing and the cast and crew were incredible. We cannot wait to see what tonight brings!

We are excited to announce we are re-releasing some of our old horror short films on our Patreon including the Hellion series. We would dearly love to share The Murderous Plans of Skylar Speer again but unfortunately one of the cast has asked to be removed from the film and IMDB credits as they have had a religious awakening and we will respect their wishes. With their character removed, the film no longer makes sense so it looks like we may have to re-shoot that film with our new cameras and mics! More excuses for horror, blood and gore in 2025! Maybe we can finally figure out how to film the terrifying steamroller scene!
This photo is from the Hellion anthology with the incredibly talented Ellyse Gough.
