Similarly to the start of many of my stories, I saw what other people were doing and thought I could do better, or at least different. After a few short horror films I watched, a friend and I said we could do better. So on the drive home we kicked around ideas and after a schnitzel and Tucher we had the outline for a short film, "You're Next Stan"
With limited space, money, time and talent, we have set out to tell a horror story in about five minutes. If the story is good enough, none of those limitations will matter.
Anyone that watches this and knows me then they will see the influence that Twilight Zone has had on me. So when I say, 'horror' its in that realm. It's got a monster, a bunker and people who talk through two way radios. Most importantly it has a twist.
So far we have had a lot of fun building the set and re-working the script to make it tighter and smarter. We still have a long way to go to get everything right. I'm looking forward to every step.
