IN THE WORKS
You didn’t hear it from us, but…
MIDGIES (FEATURE)
Midgies follows Marcie and her teenage daughter Isla on a road trip through the stunning Scottish Highlands. Their adventure turns terrifying as they're forced into a desperate fight for survival against a relentless swarm of tiny terrors.
The project began as a viral tweet before evolving into a concept trailer that racked up over a million views and national press. Now gearing up for production in 2026.
STRAW (SHORT)
Struggling to find your path is hard, especially when a cult has already chosen it for you. In this darkly funny folk horror, disappointing your parents isn’t just awkward—it’s a sacrifice.
Successfully crowdfunded by over 140 backers, Straw begins production Halloween 2025. You can still support the film through Indiegogo’s InDemand programme.
