Thing on the Beach Takes the Monster’s POV
Have you ever wanted to experience a monster movie from the point of view of the creature itself? That’s the angle writer/producer Evan Pleger is taking with Thing on the Beach, a short film that unfolds through the eyes of the sea-dwelling abomination. In short: first-hand carnage!
In order to bring this (bad joke alert) thing to life, the folks behind the flick are reaching out for donations on Indiegogo, and they’re pretty close to hitting their goal of $5,000. Which, of course, is where you and your stash of extra cash come into play.
What’s the movie about? I’m glad you asked:
Led by executive producer Gerald Olson, THING on the Beach is a short monster movie shot from the point of view of The Monster, an other-worldly deep sea creature beached after a storm. It will be exciting to watch but challenging to produce. The unique perspective and shooting on a beach location will be difficult to pull off. Done right, we think it’ll produce a spectacular picture, filled with gripping action, exquisitely disgusting practical effects, thrills, chills, and spills!
