WALPURGIS NIGHT, A disturbing fresh take on the classic werewolf story.

*STRETCH GOAL $15,000*

Synopsis:

A wealthy couple, Imre and Justine, are visiting the deep forests of Romania and find themselves at the mercy of Waldemar Daninsky, THE WEREWOLF. The wolf terrorizes the countryside, killing anyone in its path. But Waldemar desperately seeks a cure to his lycanthropy. After a horrific tragedy strikes, Waldemar and Justine travel to London to seek the help from of Dr. Jekyll's grandson. But when the full moon rises... The werewolf becomes loose in London!  Justine and Jekyll must quickly find a way to end this horrible curse.

This film will be filled with horrifying gore, incredible special effects, and bring a sleek new look to the classic gothic monster movie!

 

WHY WALPURGIS NIGHT?

Back in 2017 we made the short film The Legend of El Hombre Lobo; a 40 minute tribute to Paul Naschy. It premiered in Spain at the Nocturna Madrid Film Festival in 2018 and received over 970,000 views on Youtube.

 

But we always wanted to do more with the story and develop it into a feature film: a loving tribute to monster films from the past.

So WALPURGIS NIGHT was born! BUT...

WE NEED YOUR HELP!

This film has been in the works for over 2 years and it's finally time to make a full-blown werewolf film that is sure to truly shock and disturb its audience. Special Makeup Effects will take center stage in this film. Eric Yoder (writer/director) has been doing the art of creature effects for over 10 years and has worked on many films. There won't be any CGI in this film... EVERY EFFECT WILL BE PRACTICAL!! This includes over FOUR transformation scenes: each more horrifying than the last!

We have some great perks available for YOU, the backer!  HAVE A STARRING ROLE IN THE FILM! BE KILLED BY THE WEREWOLF HIMSELF! You could also be on set for the WHOLE SHOOT and be a part of the movie magic. You could also have a CUSTOM WEREWOLF MASK, COSTUMES, PROPS, T-SHIRTS, IMDB CREDITS, and MUCH MORE!

ALL FUNDING WILL GO TOWARDS SETS, COSTUMES, AND NEW EQUIPMENT FOR THE FILM- ALONG WITH ALL THE GREAT PERKS FOR YOU, THE BACKER!

 

The equipment used for a film can change the entire look and feel of it. This film needs to have a visual sense of dread and gloom. We plan to use the best cinema lenses for the film, including all BLACKMAGIC equipment.

Another pivotal part of the film is the costume and set design. Accuracy can make or break a film's setting. We want to make sure the clothing, set pieces, and cars will perfectly match its 1972 setting. 

There will be a lot to get done on this film and we will be taking every step possible to make the best possible film.  The film has been in pre-production for two years and many things are set in place, such as locations, props, and actors. 

Thank you so much for taking the time to look at the campaign. If you cannot contribute...

BY THE WAY..WHAT IS WALPURGIS NIGHT? AND WHAT DOES IT MEAN?..

Walpurgis Night or Walpurgisnacht was celebrated on April 30th, witches and Satan worshipers gather for the Great Sabbath of the year. Some fly to the meeting places on their brooms or pitch forks, some leave their bodies and attend the meeting in spirit, while others cover their bodies with a secret ointment to grow bat wings so they can fly to the gathering. In their place, they leave a vicarium daemonem, their demonic double. It doesn’t matter which method is used for traveling, as long as the meeting is honored by everyone’s presence.

They gather just before midnight at crossroads, mountain tops, and in forests, they light a roaring bonfire which they jump through and dance around, until their Horned God arrives in their middle and the true Night of the Witches begins. They commune with their god and make love to him, they release their magic to defend it against the rising cross which with its shadow darkened the light of ancient magic. 

On this night, many children and animals were sacrificed, even some children along with their decendents were cursed. Cursed on every full moon to become a WEREWOLF...
