The Stabbing of Molly Smith

 Grace makes her Project Horror debut in style playing Molly Smith, a mob enforcer and bagman. Her mission should be simple enough - drop off the case and pick up the cash. But she's dealing with a new crew, one that doesn't respect honour amongst thieves. 

This film was so much fun to make and it was actually Grace's audition - she's worked with me a couple of times since and she keeps getting better and better. I think you guys will really appreciate her performance.  2020-09-07 16:50:38 +0000 UTC View Post

Her Blood Runs Red - Teaser

I've just posted Her Blood Runs Red video, which is available only to super fans. Amber did such an amazing job, I thought I share some screen grabs will all patrons. 

Her Blood Runs Red

This is exclusive for Psycho Killer Super Fans

Amber is amazing in this film we made for a patron a while ago. She plays a woman obsessed with seppuku, so obsessed she wonders what it would feel like. One night, her curiosity gets the better of her. She doesn't quite get it right and has to finish herself off with a second blow. Amber's performance is outstanding and the film features some cool gushing blood fx. 

Blood & Honour: The Raid

Here it is - finally. Apologies for the delay. 

So Blood & Honour: The Raid picks up shortly after the bloodbath at the safe house. The corrupt cops are striking back against the Wallace crime family, with a co-ordinated attack on a series of gang hideouts to grab as much cash and drugs as possible. 

We follow Detectives Jenner and O'Connell as they kill their way through an old warehouse. O'Connell (played my Mel) tortures one of the gang members for more info, befo...

Coming to Project Horror in September

I'm very excited about September's releases. 

We have some new faces and some new practical fx techniques on show. We have lots of amazing death scenes and some truly badass protagonists. 

I'm not sure exactly about which order I'll edit them in but, in the order they appear in the trailer, we have ...

The Stabbing of Molly Smith

Mob enforcer Molly Smith is on a routine drop when she's stabbed by a rival gang member. She shots him and starts ...

Phoebe Stabbed and Gutted

An exclusive bonus release for all those on the Psycho Killer tiers

Phoebe is engrossed in a book when an unseen attacker breaks into her apartment. Frozen in fear and terror, Phoebe is unable to move as the maniac slices her belly open.

Back in January/February, Phoebe came in for her audition with Project Horror. 

She wanted to do something a little quieter and a bit more understated than my usual over-the-top death scenes. Which is cool, I do like tr...

Blood & Honour: The Safe House

 Firstly, thanks for bearing with me and apologies for the slight delay in posting this. 

Do remember that I post four main releases within a month - so on a month with five weekends, they are going to be a bit more spread out. The Psycho Killers will get their bonus video Wed/Thur this week and Blood & Honour: The Raid will be coming on Sun/Mon. The Super Fans had their bonus video right at the start of the month and will get September's next week. 

Like I said...

I’m running late ... again

I’m on holiday and have grossly overestimated how much free time I might have to finish the edit for The Safe House.

Kasey’s performance is amazing and I don’t want to budge the edit either.

Thanks for bearing with me. I expect to release the Safe House this weekend and then The Raid the weekend after. And that will be the four main releases this month. They’ll be an archive release for Psycho Killers before the end of the month as well.

Sorry the releases have be...

Amber gunned down in white and then undressed

Today’s teaser comes from a custom I shot for a patron last night with the incredible Amber. This will be coming to the Super Fan tier in the coming months.

Had loads of fun with the prosthetics. And they look wicked - even if I do say so myself 😂🤣

Teasers - too much, just right, or not enough?

Hello Psycho Killers of all sizes. 

Last month I started posting regular, frequent stills from shoots as and when they happened. As with all changes, I like to give them a while and then see what everyone thinks. So - are you enjoying the teasers? 

Check the answer that fits you best. Also feel free to go into more detail in the comments.

New girl Katie stabbed and ripped open

Katie came in the other day for her first Project Horror shoot. She’s a very experienced actress so we jumped straight in with a supernatural story in which she is stabbed many many times and then ripped open and disembowelled. Expect to see this Sept/Oct time

Blood & Honour: The Stand Off

Apologies for the slight delay in posting this and thanks again for bearing with me. 

I am beyond excited to start our new series, Blood & Honour with The Stand Off. 

In Humber City, there has always been an understanding between the cops and the Wallaces, the city's largest crime family. The Wallaces ensure the violence is contained within the criminal community and the cops turn a blind eye and take a cut of the profits. Some cops ...

I'm running late!!

Hi there, 

I hope you all had good weekends. Just a quick note to say I'm running a little behind with the next release. I was hoping to finish it and upload it today, but it's looking more like it will be tomorrow before it's ready. It's just taking a little longer for a couple of reasons 1) the initial scene was shot outdoors and it was crazy windy and it took ages to clean the sound up 2) there's a three way stand off, which editing together took longer than expected. It's only ...

Two cops and a mobster shot

Here are some set stills from this weekend’s release, Blood & Honour: The Stand Off.

Neave gunned down in white

Had a blast filming this shooting scene with Neave at the weekend. Should be released in September, maybe October

Grace stabbed and left for dead

Grace came in for her Project Horror audition and she was ace. We filmed a stabbing scene where she’s attacked but kills her assailant. She then staggered around for a while trying to find a phone. She makes the call but passes out from blood loss before help arrives.

Grace is definitely coming back for more.

Return to Killingholme

Our August kicks off proper, with a quick trip back to Killingholme. If you've not watched the other two films in the Killingholme Trilogy, then check out The Curious Disappearance of Jennifer Devere and Finding Jennifer before watching Return to Killingholme. 

If you like impalements, if you like lots of walking wounded, you ...

Quite a few of you asked about this

A while ago I posted these teaser pics from a custom I was shooting. A few of you asked when I might upload it. It’s now available to super fans here https://www.patreon.com/posts/39983113/

Amber gives an amazing performance and the prosthetic wound looks ace

The Shower Killer

This is an exclusive for Psycho Killer Super Fans

Here's the first exclusive release for you amazing super fans. This is custom I shot for a patron. The client was ace to work with and gave really clear instructions as to the placement of the wound. I was really nervous about getting it right, but, thankfully, we nailed it. 

The actor is Amber - who is actually one of my longest standing collaborators. She is - and she freely admits this - unable to do dialog...

Happy New Prop Day to me

Shotgun and a handgun with silencer have been added to the armoury. And check out these files - made by super fan Luc. Absolutely love them and getting them in the post this morning was a lovely surprise 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Important notice for Psycho Killers

It's getting toward the end of the month, which means at some point on Saturday (depending on where you are in the world) all the download links will expire. 

So please make sure you catch up with all your downloading on Thursday/Friday. 

Thanks again

Introducing the new Psycho Killer Super Fan tier

I continue to be overwhelmed by the support you guys give me as well as all the constructive feedback I get from you on a regular basis. 

A few people have been in touch wanting to know how they can support Project Horror further. And I've also had a few people get in touch after seeing some teasers, wanting to know if they can access the customs I've been making. 

I've done quite a few customs and they've been so much fun to make. They definitely sit outside the Project...

Coming to Project Horror in August

There are some great films coming your way in August - so please make sure you stick around. As well as all the usual blood and gore, I have a few of new actors who are really cool - can't wait for you to see what they can do. There are some truly badass performances and characters coming your way in August.

In Return To Killingholme, we head back to the mysterious Yorkshire town for another attempt to unravel  out what happened to Jennifer Devere ...

Chased, Stabbed & Gutted - archive video release

This is an exclusive video release just for patrons in the Psycho Killer tiers

As I mentioned when I announced some changes to the tiers at the end of June, Psycho Killers get an extra, exclusive video release every month. Sometimes, it will be from the archives (like today). Sometimes it will be someone's audition/screen test. 

So here is a film when I was just getting into video. I shot this with Phoebe around 3-4 years ago. As an experiment, I shot this en...

How’s your Tuesday night?

Kasey, Neave, and Kelly all in the studio tonight

Prelude to Gang War

This is Project Horror's 50th release - so I thought I'd try something new. And what better way to mark our 50th release than with Neave as an arrogant mobster getting machine-gunned in slo-mo. 

It's a really simple, single location story. It's a FX test, dressed up as a story - which is fine, nothing wrong with that. I've wanted to experiment with slo-mo and I have shot a ton more slo-mo shootings since - but this is my first shot at it (pun intended). 

I need to work o...

Kayleigh machine gunned teaser

Kayleigh popped in a few nights ago to shoot a custom job - a series of short and sweet (well, actually very brutal) machine gunnings. She was incredible and the client is happy with with the sneak speak he got 🤣😂 seriously, if you’re thinking of a custom, consider Kayleigh - firstly, she’s a great actor, secondly, she gets the whole death scene thing, and thirdly, she looks amazing

Headshot blood splatter test - two mobsters gunned down

Nelly and Betty came in for their PH audition the other night and rocked it. We did a lengthy chase shootout sequence that ends with Betty being tortured a bit before being executed by Nelly. The video looks good - should be out September October time 🙌🏻🙌🏻

White blouse machine gun overkill - Kirsty’s debut

I’ve been recruiting new actors to Project Horror recently and it’s been so much fun. Kirsty came in for her audition a few nights ago and we shot some cool videos. Along the way, I got these on-set stills.

Tell me more about being Wounded - an open thread

So I started a poll running at the start of the week, breaking down the various stages of a typical film and asking people to vote for the elements that are important to them. 

If you've not taken part in the poll yet, just click here

One of the most popular elements was WOUNDED - so the period of time between the initial attack and the person becoming immobile and starting their death throes. ...
