Short Summary
The Mime is a slasher/horror film set to film this January. It is the story of a woman haunted by her past; a murderous past. After witnessing her mother stabbed to death by a street performer years ago, the grown Samantha seeks a normal life with her friends and partner August. Little does she know that the evil that took her mother would return to seek revenge on a world that hated it; it is the mime!
- I am the executive director and writer Bobby Henry. As an author of fiction and film director I have joined forces with House of Lazslo Productions to produce this magnificent film.
- We are looking at filming this project in January and February and are seeking any financial support or donations we can to help cover some of the costs of filming.
- If you contribute you will have your name in the credits and receive special promotional gifts (such as DVD copies, signed pictures of our lovely actor Jenny Wallace and even an appearance in the film-barring location of contributors).
What We Need & What You Get
OK this is what we need:
- While we are covering the costs of equipment, we are in need of a few things such as latex, special FX and minor operating costs (location permits, food and transportation costs).
- As mentioned above, for your donations you will get your name in the credits and receive special promotional gifts (such as DVD copies, signed pictures of our lovely actor Jenny Wallace and even an appearance in the film-barring location of contributors).
- If you make a donation of $15 or more your name will go in the credits. If you donate $30 or more, you will receive a signed picture of the beautiful Jenny Wallace. For $50 or more, one of the knives used in the filming and the opportunity as an extra in the film; barring location.
- If we do not reach our goal, what finds we do receive will go towards the cost of latex and other special FX costs (make-up, blood, etc.).
The Impact
Here are a few reasons we feel this project is so important:
- There are so few good quality horror/slasher films. First and foremost we are fans and wish to make a movie that we would want to see.
- Being that mimes are incredibly frightening, on the scale of clowns, and yet there have been no major depictions of them in horror films, we feel that commercially this will be an enormous success.
