RENFIELD: BRING YOUR OWN BLOOD: "Renfield: Bring Your Own Blood is a single-player bullet hell auto-roguelite that combines the simplicity of one-touch gameplay with frenetic, room-based action. With unique stages, dozens of enemies, diabolical bosses and enough weapons for a bug-powered bloody rampage, Renfield: Bring Your Own Blood shows you the ups and downs of being the lackey/employee of the most demanding boss in history - Dracula.
The 1.0 launch sees the addition of Dracula as both a boss fight AND playable character, alongside a litany of new additions like other playable characters, levels, weapons, power-ups, and more!"

HOUSE OF ASHES: "After pitching for years and having helmed 24 shorts, prolific filmmaker Izzy Lee has launched the Kickstarter campaign for her first feature-length film, House of Ashes. In the middle of day three of the campaign, the first goal was reached. Now begins the climb towards doubling this initial goal; pledges go toward additional production support like an Assistant Director and Assistant Camera crew positions, as well as towards enhanced special effects, shooting days, and more scenes.
Written by Lee and her Nihil Noctem Films partner Steve Johanson, House of Ashes is the story of Mia, a grieving widow under house arrest ¾ for the crime of having a miscarriage. Shortly after her new boyfriend Marc moves in, things start going missing and tensions rise. But is their intruder human or spectral? Perhaps both. One thing’s for sure ¾ Mia can’t leave. If she does, she risks a heavier sentence. So how does she survive?
Rewards include a special edition streaming link of the finished film, IMDB credits, producer credits, behind-the-scenes production diaries, and much more.
“It's because of supporters like YOU that I get to finally call myself a feature filmmaker. That's no small thing,” Lee states. “We’ve reached our first $20k goal in two-and-a-half days! This is an amazing feat, but it doesn't mean we no longer need your support. Every extra dollar House of Ashes raises contributes to a resource that wasn't previously available. Maybe it's an extra prep day for a collaborator, a couple extra hours to film a climactic scene, the perfect prop, or an unexpected VFX fix. On their own, each of these little resources subtly make the film better. Together, the cumulative effect can be magical. Consider joining our team and help make quality indie horror happen!”"

HELL HOUSE LLC ORIGINS: THE CARMICHAEL MANOR: "After months of hints from TERROR FILMS RELEASING across social media, the official trailer, poster and release date for writer / director Stephen Cognetti’s “HELL HOUSE LLC ORIGINS: THE CARMICHAEL MANOR” is finally here and there is a lot to unpack. The long-awaited fourth film within Cognetti’s popular Hell House LLC franchise will debut as an official selection at the 14th annual TELLURIDE HORROR SHOW, from October 13th to 15th, followed by its exclusive streaming debut on Shudder on October 30th, during the streamer’s “Devil’s Night” premiere.
The film will also screen at the IFC Center theater on Tuesday, October 24 in New York as part of the Shudder Showcase, a monthly series that serves up special advance screenings of some of the leading genre platform's most exciting and provocative upcoming titles.
Cognetti is set to attend both Telluride and IFC Center, participating in a Q&A after each screening. Fans interested in purchasing tickets to the festival and showcase, can visit:
Telluride Horror Show: www.telluridehorrorshow.com
Shudder Showcase at IFC Center: www.ifccenter.com/series/shudder-showcase/
“Although this is the fourth film in the Hell House LLC series, I want fans to know that this is not a ‘part 4’ or a prequel. In making the Carmichael Manor, I wanted to create an original story within the Hell House LLC universe yet set it in the present day instead of making a precursor to the original trilogy. As a filmmaker, the Carmichael Manor allowed me to explore some of the themes and origins from the hotel’s mythology, while introducing new characters and mysteries surrounding the events that took place in 1989 in a stand-alone origin story, one of several I hope to create,” stated Cognetti.
The story takes place in 2021 and follows a group of internet sleuths who travel to the remote Carmichael Manor. Located deep in the woods of Rockland County, New York, the estate is the site of the infamous 1989 Carmichael family murders that have gone unsolved to this day. What they discover are secrets that have been hidden away for decades and a terror that has been lurking in the shadows long before Hell House.
The film is produced by Joe Bandelli, with Joe Dain and Jim Klock executive producing for Terror Films Releasing. Hell House LLC Origins: The Carmichael Manor will be available to anyone with a Shudder or AMC+ subscription in the U.S., Canada, U.K., Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, Latin America, Spain and Portugal.
For fans who don’t yet have a subscription, Shudder offers a 7-Day free trial however, Terror Films Releasing has teamed with Shudder to offer this special promo code: HELLHOUSELLC4
The code will be good for a 14-Day Free Trial from the date activation, but this special code expires on 10/21/23, so be sure to activate it before 10/21 but no earlier than 10/18 to catch the premiere of Hell House LLC Origins: The Carmichael Manor on 10/30/23."
