HORRIFIED - A Meta Horror-Comedy Feature By Michael Zara: "Hello fans of the horror genre or just independent filmmaking! As you know, in the last four years, the entertainment industry has been ROUGH, to say the least. It’s so hard to get something sold or set up, which is why...

... I’m making something myself, which also happens to be my feature film directorial debut!

HORRIFIED is a meta horror comedy starring Hallmark superstar Aimee Teegarden (FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS, RINGS, SCREAM 4). Aimee plays Jamie Jaymes, a down-on-her-luck former scream queen who attends a horror convention in a small town where a serial killer disguised as the villain from her franchise starts to pick off her friends one by one.

This film isn’t just a fun horror romp; it’s about a woman struggling with addiction and overcoming her inner demons by battling evil in real life.

To drum up excitement (and investors), a couple of our actors and a small crew are traveling to Lexington, KY, in mid-October. That’s where ScareFest, one of the country’s biggest horror conventions, is held. At the Con, we'll shoot b-roll and footage for a sizzle reel/trailer. ScareFest has given us full access to their show, as well as using their name and logo in the film! This will be a 3-day shoot at the Con.

Once the sizzle is completed, we believe there’s a strong potential for us to raise the rest of the funds needed to start production in early 2025 in KY (they have a 35% tax incentive). We are currently half-funded.

Other actors attached to the film are:

Jim Rash (COMMUNITY)
Kearran Giovanni (MAJOR CRIMES)
Jessica Meraz (MAJOR CRIMES)
Daniel Di Tomasso (MAJOR CRIMES)
Jason Behr (ROSWELL)
Natalie Lander (THE MIDDLE)
Julie Brown (CLUELESS)
Jeffery Self (SEARCH PARTY)
Toy Newkirk (NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 4)
Brooke Theiss (NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 4)
Lisa Wilcox (NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 4 & 5)
Matt Moy (2 BROKE GIRLS)
Karen Knox (LETTERS TO SATAN CLAUS)
Jay Donnell (THE INHERITANCE)
Aaron Behr (THE ROOKIE)
Colleen Smith (THE CURIOUS CREATIONS OF CHRISTINE MCCONNELL)

Flying and putting up myself, our actors, DP, and an assistant in KY ain't cheap. Neither are all the props and post-production needs. The total number of cost is broken down below:

Hotels: $2,145.00
Flights: $4,600.00
Hair/Makeup: $500.00
Killer Mask Design: $1,500.00
Costumes: $2,000.00
Meals: $1,200.00
Edit/Post: $5,000.00
Music: $2,500.00
GFM/Bank Fees: $2,000.00

= $19,445.00

I’m sharing all this information just so you know how passionate and serious I am about making an incredible, impactful, yet “bloody bubblegum” film.

When we make this film, everyone who's contributed to the project will receive a special thanks in the credits. Also, I'll keep everyone up to date along the way of this exciting and bloody journey!

Hope I have your support! Thank you SO much!!

xoxo

Mike Z."
