"Here we go again..."
Coming off of a long and exhausting feature, I was looking forward to taking a step back and not dedicating to anything too intensive for a while. However, I had promised young actress Alexa Mechling that I would use her in a horror short some time in the near future. As fate would have it, another young lady named Ava Psoras became aware of the project and commented that her mom would be perfect for the role of Alexa’s character’s mother in the developing story.
Ava’s mom is none other than Betsy Lynn George, the video vixen of Billy Idol’s Cradle of Love music video and various other television and film projects. The story was refined as the script drafts took into consideration the potential possibilities associated with the attention the burgeoning project was getting before settling into a finely tuned Project Proposal. After watching some of my work, specifically Forest Queen and erson, Ms. George agreed to the project and Ava was cast as Clara, sister to Alexa’s Cassandra. Additionally, veteran character actor Joe Fishel and rising talent Jace Armentrout came on board to fill out the cast.
A talented and dedicated crew has been assembled from the best of the best that I have ever had the pleasure to work with over the years to help usher this unsettling nightmare to life. Shooting in the summer of 2018, Occurrence at Mills Creek is a short horror film with a clear strategy to evolve into a feature over time.
Every element of this project came together as a perfect storm, and we’re ready to capture the lighting that it’s going to bring.
