It seems like it was only yesterday but it feels like a lifetime ago that the Mutantville Players were at the Fright Night Film Fest in Kentucky. MVP made the 8 hour trip to meet the Master of Horror John Carpenter – director of Halloween, The Thing, In The Mouth of Madness, Cigarette Burns, and The Ward. Over the course of the weekend our mission was accomplished and we had an amazing time.
Now we want to share our pics of the Fright Night Film Fest and Fandom Fest with you!
It’s been a very productive week so far with the successful completion of the Muticia’s Movie Morgue segments for Tales From Mutantville. Cast and crew spearheaded by the lovely Vanelle brought the character of Muticia to life. The shoot went very smoothly and we had an absolute blast shooting the scenes. Big thanks to everyone who came out to make it possible – and of course a big thank you goes out to everyone that helped make Tales From Mutantville possible – we couldn’t have done any of it without you!
This weekend we’re still racing to get ready for the big convention next week – the Fright Night Film Fest in Kentucky. We’re prepping shirts, updating websites, completing post-production on Tales From Mutantville and so much more in an effort to be ready for the con. Actually, we’re getting ready for two conventions, because this year promoter Ken Daniels is putting on two great cons for the price of one with the addition of Fandom Fest.
Here is a video about our trip to Fright Night Film Fest 2010 and our coming trip to Fright Night Film Fest 2011! In this video, Geo brings you an update on the latest news from the upcoming Fright Night Film Fest in Kentucky next month.
This year at the Fright Night Film Fest you get two awesome shows for the price of one with the inclusion of the Fandom Fest!

TGIF my fellow Mutants! It’s Friday and the weekend is upon us.

Screenplay by: Chad Law
Producer: Carolina Filmworks & Image Impact Group
Director: Robert W. Filion
Tagline: What is the Boogeyman afraid of?
Synopsis: After facing the gruesomeness of war in the Middle East, a weary and jaded Val Worthington returns home to his sister Alex. Despite much protest, Alex ropes Val into camping in the mountains for the weekend with her and her college friends. Instead of finding fun and adventure, the group stumbles upon something so ghastly it would give the Boogeyman nightmares.
Carolina Filmworks and Image Impact Group are currently seeking professional and experienced actors for a trailer for the upcoming Feature film ABOMINATIONS. The trailer will be used to secure funds for the project. While there are several roles available for the feature we are only casting three roles at this time. Please note that because this is an investor trailer, work is on a volunteer basis. However it is our hope that in casting the trailer we will also have our leads cast!
Only submit if you fit the breakdowns below. Anyone not fitting descriptions below will not be considered. Note: these are the three lead characters.
David Arkem: Male/30+/ 6’7”(will consider over 6’3”)/Massive but not overweight/Gruff voice/Sadistic/Grizzly/Intimidating…our Boogeyman. (Think Kane Hodder)
Alex Worthington: Female/22 Younger sister of Val. Caring and nurturing she worries about her brother’s state of mind post war. All American girl next-door type, unassuming but more than meets the eye.
Val Worthington: Male/25 War torn soul that returns home somewhat detached from the life he once loved. Loyal but cynical. Would prefer to be left alone.
The location for auditions is not yet set and will most likely be February 13th.
Please follow submission directions to be considered:
LOCAL HIRES ONLY! (Charlotte, NC and surrounding areas)
Again, only submit if you fit the above breakdown.
Copy and Paste Head shot and Resume into email. No attachments. You may include links to video clips.
Subject line should say ABOMINATIONS/Character you are auditioning for i.e. ABOMINATIONS/Alex Worthington
Send submission to Vanelle [AT] gmail.com
More casting information will be released in the upcoming months. All roles will be paid in the feature version.
Thank you for your interest!
