“Night of the Slasher” To Screen At SXSW
The short was written and directed by Shant Hamassian and is produced by Adam Lesar, and they are also pitching this short as a “proof-of-concept” in the hopes of turning it into a feature film.
“For years, I kept running into closed doors, but now SXSW has opened a big one! But it’s not just a financial investment we are seeking, but an investment and trust in the vision and in myself.”
The movie is described as a ‘shot in one take’ film about a teenage girl who must commit horror movie sins in order to lure a masked killer so she can exact revenge. It stars Lily Berlina as the “Slasher Girl,” Scott Javore as “the Bait,” and Adam Lesar as “the Killer,” with music by Simon Michel. Press relations for the film, cast and crew are being handled by ChicArt Public Relations.
