I am very excited to celebrate Halloween this year with my very own horror short film, loosely based on the Akuma in Japanese folklore.
I took a trip to Los Angeles to film an entire different short film that never came to fruition due to Covid and, not wanting to come home empty-handed, the writer I was staying with, Mardi Fernando (also the star), and I decided to come up with something quick and fun. This project was conceptualized, written, blocked and shot in less than 8 hours and I had to recreate all the audio in post, 2 states from the filming location. It won't win any awards but we had so much fun making this and I can't wait to work with Mardi again!
A sincere thank to Mardi Fernando and Shant Postadjian for allowing to me crash with them and save tons on hotels/not sleeping in my car. Also, to Victoria Murray, who was one of our leads in the original concept but was unable to come back to the shooting location due to Covid. The only reason Mardi and I could even make this happen was because I was already crashing in her and Shant's living room. No one else was allowed back to shoot to be safe.
Please enjoy the show!
