Kismet Entertainment Group - the people who brought us the werewolf flick "Dog Soldiers" - have announced the formation of Graveyard Filmworks, a division dedicated to lower-budget horror. The movies will be financed by Kismet head, producer David E. Allen. The projects he has in the works are:
- "Dog Soldiers: Fresh Meat", the sequel to Kismet's cult hit "Dog Soldiers", which will be shot with a much bigger budget than the other Graveyard projects (which are all budgeted at about $1 million a piece).
- "Boo!", a movie written by Cinescape editor-in-chief Anthony C. Ferrante. Ferrante will make his directorial debut with the movie, which begins shooting on December 1st in Los Angeles, CA. The plot revolves around a group of college kids trapped in a haunted house on Halloween.
- "Servant of the Dark," a supernatural psychological thriller written by Anthony Valletta and to be directed by Allen.
- "Cemetery Gates," a creature feature about an escaped mutated experimental animal written by Brian Patrick O'Toole, with the director to be determined.
- A project in development to be directed by Dagen Merrill.
Graveyard Filmwork's goal is to make 4-6 horror movies, all with new names and new talent. "If the script scares the shit out of me, we will make it," Allen said.
