Austin, Texas heavy metal frontman, Ven Scott (Runescarred, ex-Dead Earth Politics), has completed his directorial debut, a short titled Date From Hell. You can check out a short teaser and some stills below.
In the film, Bobby (Samuel Brett Howard) and Susie (Ava L’Amoreaux) find themselves on the worst date ever, pursued by a lone drifter with murder on his mind. The drifter is unrelenting, relishing the hunt and claiming his victims.
Running at just under twelve minutes, Date From Hell is currently being submitted to festivals across the U.S., Canada and beyond. Filmed over a period of three nights in Llano, Texas the goal was to create a film clearly inspired by 1980’s horror masters.
Of the film Scott says, “This became way more than I imagined. Much bigger than I hoped, and I am incredibly proud of this. The friendship and guidance from both Brandon Torres (cinematographer/producer) and Tracee Beebe (co-writer/producer) was and remains immeasurable. I can’t wait to share it with everyone!”
Scott adds that he hopes to make the film available to the public late in 2019, after the festival circuit has completed for the film.
