So, what's the deal?

        Imagine if the Iconic Horror Slasher, SCREAM, was produced during a pandemic in one location with a diverse cast. You’re now getting a glimpse of the indie feature film, KILLER, written, directed and produced by African-American creative, A. D. Smith.

        In March of 2020, a two-week shutdown is ordered across the country after a virus strikes the nation. Ten college friends decide to quarantine together under the same roof. To pass the time, they play a parlor game that makes one of them a killer and the others, the community. 

        But what happens when the game becomes real? The two couples, Brandon/Cindy and Will/Kelly just want to spend the next two weeks together hanging out in the first mass quarantine of the century. But their friend Sam is all too eager to party and has made other plans, inviting five more of their crew. What they thought would be a two-week vacation turns into a two-month prison term as the quarantine is extended and they are forced to stay in the house after one of them contracts the virus. Friends turn into foes, secrets are revealed, and a mysterious masked slasher turns their pastime into his/her own murderous entertainment. Will anyone survive this game of Killer?

        With production now complete, (YES, WE'VE ALREADY FILMED THE MOVIE!) the KILLER team is seeking to raise funds for its Post-Production which includes editing, sound mixing, special effects and color grading. But don’t fret. You won’t have to wait long to watch the movie. Although still negotiating with distributors, KILLER is planning for an early-spring 2021 release.

Okay, but why 20k?

        We've already spent thousands in getting the film this far. 20k will cover us down the stretch. Although filmed on a tight budget, we want KILLER to look and feel as good as any of the 'bigger budget' horror/thriller movies! And quite frankly, that takes money.

        This cast and crew has worked hard to craft a unique vision. We can't wait for you to see what we've accomplished with little. We also can't wait for you to take advantage of the various perks! Shirt, posters, props and used face masks! Ha!!! (Don't worry, they've just been painted on... :-) 

Who Is A. D. Smith?        

        A. D. is the writer, director and producer of KILLER. He's had the game-portion of the idea for some time but it was never quite right. After the pandemic struck, the idea for the killer's costume crept in his brain and the rest is history. Although an avid, life-long fan of horror movies, A. D. had never written one. He didn't let this stop him, however, banging out a first draft of the story in about four nights.

        As an African-American upcoming filmmaker, A. D. wants to break down barriers and status quo in the horror genre and make films that contain a diverse group of people in front of as well as behind the camera.
