There are plenty of Kickstarter success stories out there, and we hope that The Mortuary Collection ends up joining their ranks as it sounds completely badass! As of this writing the guys have 56 hours left to raise just $4,000! Read on to see if you wanna pitch in!
Described as a stylized live-action horror anthology film that fuses the surreal storytelling of “The Twilight Zone” with the goopy aesthetics of “Tales from the Crypt,” The Mortuary Collection will be comprised of four twisted tales of madness and the macabre in a sleepy New England town, spun by an eccentric mortician.
On the run from the police, a misguided young girl takes refuge in a decrepit old mortuary. There she meets Montgomery Dark, an eccentric undertaker with more than a few skeletons in his closet. Montgomery chronicles the strange history of the town through a series of twisted tales, each more terrifying than the last. But the young girl’s world is unhinged when she discovers that the final story… is her own.
The Mortuary Collection taps into four distinct horror sub-genres, making it a virtual potpourri of horror favorites. There’s a Monster Movie, a Slasher Film, a Ghost Story, and a Psychological Tale of Madness, all intertwined in a sleepy New England town. Whether it’s a haunting tale of revenge from beyond the grave or a ghastly abomination of science and technology, one fact remains… Every corpse has a story.
Filmmaker Ryan Spindell needs $50,000 to bring the ambitious film to life, and he’s almost there. Head over to The Mortuary Collection‘s Kickstarter campaign to pitch in and help out, where all kinds of fun incentives await.
