Got a tenner?

British Indie producer Tom Atkinson writes to tell the BHF about his latest project...

The 10 Pound Horror Film -www.the10poundhorrorfilm.com has already had support for the project from names like Nicholas Roeg (/Don’t Look Now/), John Landis (/American Werewolf in London/; the Michael Jackson /Thriller/ music video), Simon Pegg and Nick Frost (both from /Spaced, Hot Fuzz/ and /Shaun of the Dead/) as well as Kane Hodder (Jason from the /Friday the 13th/ series).

The aim of the project is to create a truly 21st century British Horror film and open up the production process to horror fans worldwide on the internet.

I feel the time is right for a project that aims to bring the British Horror Film back to international prominence.

A video teaser for the 10 Pound Horror Film posted on YouTube one month ago to test people’s interest has already received over 70,000 views and shows no sign of stopping and the first Video Blog for the production is attracting a lot of interest.
