Early Details on Action Horror Anthology Splatterpunk

Erick Wofford previously produced the award-winning short film The Music of Erich Zann, an adaptation of an H.P. Lovecraft story; and now he’s working on Splatterpunk, a project incorporating a tale from David Schow (The Crow, Texas Chainsaw Massacre III, and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning).
Wofford tells us, “I just launched an indiegogo campaign to finish my latest film, Splatterpunk. It is an action horror anthology made in cooperation with David Schow. We also have world-renowned pulp art illustrator Vincent Di Fate doing our movie poster. The film features David Schow’s “Blue Amber” and several stories of my own, all separate but existing in the same fictional world.”
He continues, “In other words, the film will be a similar gory version of Richard Linklater’s Slacker in that certain characters will meet and interact with characters from separate storylines. We also have some award-winning SFX guys on board and a well seasoned Atlanta-based film crew, but the campaign ends June 30th.”
Here’s a bit more on said campaign:
– By raising our own money, we do not have to “water down” our vision and do not have to submit to a film [company’s] opinion on what is and isn’t acceptable to film and show our fans!
– All of the funds that we raise will go right back into the making of this film. This movie will feature ALOT of practical effects not that CGI bullcrap! The money will also be going towards finding creepy locations to film inside as well as casting big name actors and actresses. We also need money to buy props, weapons, gore effects, lighting equipment, wardrobe, and much more.
– We have made it a priority to offer some of the coolest perks for our fans! From original artwork and film-used props to meetings with the filmmakers and walk-on roles in the movie. We know that our fans work hard for their money, heck we are indie filmmakers, all of our time and money goes into making these films, so we have made these perks not only affordable but WELL worth the money.
– If we DON’T reach our funding goals, we will still be filming SPLATTERPUNK! It just might take a little longer than we planned.
