Help us make a cult horror smash!

When an errant American student connects with her movie producer uncle in London, she becomes embroiled in a world of deceit, exploitation and murder.

Whilst our latest production Daggers Inn is in the capable hands of our post-production team, we are itching to keep our moviemaking conveyor belt rolling… So Ladies and  Gentlemen, we present to you CULT NIGHT!

Moving into the dark world of cult horror movies, this is the story of Ember, a student from New York who believes that her Uncle Gene can help her climb the ladder in the London movie scene. But the studio he works for hides a sinister modus operandi. Headed by Mitch, a ruthless character who also deals in narcotics, the studio runs exclusive ‘cult nights’ where schlock horror films from yesteryear precede the midnight showing of illicit and sinister material, illegally produced by Mitch’s team.

Needless to say, Ember’s hopes of a glitzy career in London are crushed when she witnesses something she shouldn’t have, steals something she shouldn’t have, and finds herself pursued by a blood-thirsty murderer who leaves a trail of bodies in his wake.

Much like the character in 'Don't Breathe' (2016) our protagonist does something she shouldn't, and pays a heavy price...

As with many of our film productions, the budget may be small, but our ambitions are big. We are award-winning filmmakers and we will be unleashing all of our cunning, know-how and experience into making this our best work yet.

We will commence filming late November and through into December 2024, taking advantage of festive lights and long dark nights...

Screengrabs from our 7th feature film production 'Daggers Inn'

Where will your generous contributions go?

We own our camera, lighting and audio equipment, and have much of the required filmmaking skills in-house, so we are able to produce slick, well-crafted feature films on ultra-low budgets. Yet while this film will be made from our own blood, sweat, and tears, we will still need money to pay for a whole bunch of stuff, including:

  • Location fees and set design 
  • Hiring production crew members
  • Hiring professional actors & covering their expenses 
  • Catering for our cast and crew... and as anyone who works on a film set will tell you, this is THE most important thing!
  • Indiegogo / banking fees

There has been a great deal of interest in Cult Night and we believe we have something truly special with this edge-of-your-seat  horror thriller that audiences will embrace, and cinephiles will relish.

JOIN US AND HELP MAKE IT HAPPEN FOR CULT NIGHT!

Who are we?

We are James Smith and Caroline Spence, a multi award-winning writer-director and screenwriter-producer partnership who work under the banner of Raya Films.

Director James Smith & Producer/Screenwriter Caroline Spence (seen here centre) at the Best Geezer world Premiere with actors Wendy Fisher & A G Longhurst.

We have made seven feature films to date, with all projects being produced on budgets under £20,000 GBP. These films have gone on to be screened theatrically, win international awards and secure worldwide distribution. They can be seen on major streaming platforms including Amazon Prime Video, Tubi and Apple TV. Prior to turning our hand to feature film, we produced short films and documentaries, some of which have been screened on ITV in the UK and on broadcast channels in the USA.

We expect no less for Cult Night… In fact we are confident that we can build on our previous successes with a tightly woven plot, a small highly talented cast, and slick production design.

BY SUPPORTING CULT NIGHT YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED AND YOU WILL BE PROUD OF WHAT WE ALL WILL COLLECTIVELY ACHIEVE!

Risk & Challenges

Through our experience making micro/zero-budget movies, we have figured out how best to minimize risk with the following:

  • Own the camera/production gear
  • Work with crew we can rely on 100%
  • Use tried-and-tested methods of organisation, planning, and the insistence on being totally prepared for production
