The Trip (Short Horror Film)

What This Project Is About


The Trip is our homage to classic horror films from the 70's and 80's such as John Carpenter's The Thing (1982) and George A Romero's Dawn Of The Dead (1978). We hope to use some of the best equipment, beautiful lighting and practical effects to make this look as authentic as possible.

Our story follows three friends who go camping to celebrate their friendship. But in the dark mysterious woods there is a force of unearthly evil lurking.
And it is hungry...

We don't want to give too much away but you'll be sure to be in for a thrilling experience and we'd love to have your support in making this project come to life!

Why We Need You


In order to produce a high quality call back to 80's aesthetic horror films, we'd love to use practical effects and appropriate equipment. Filmmaking is expensive and funders are a necessary step towards professional shoots.
