View Full Version : Bad Acid Short Horror film
Bad Acid
05-22-2016, 01:59 PM
My short film Bad Acid is completed and is being entered into festivals.
This a brief synopsis.
Marvin Maskelyn is a washed up TV hypnotist whose fame and fortune has run out.
After losing his, he acquires a genie lamp with a chequered past and some LSD blotters within. With nothing left to lose, he takes one.
Maskelyn’s visions of success are haunted by a malevolent presence. A wry, dark fantasy on the price of fame.
Bad Acid is a love-letter to the British horror films of Amicus, Hammer and Tyburn.
So if you love British Horror from the 1970's do seek it out.

Liked the trailer. I read a few of the reviews. How does one obtain this film for their own viewing?

At the moment I'm submitting to Film Festivals in Uk, USA and some European Cities. Then I'm hoping to put it online.
Where in the world are you based?

Hi Deadbeatbydawn
Both Pete and The Slaughtered Bird like the film. If you go tothe BadAcidfilm.com website there is a list of festivals. If you know of a fest near you - contact me and I'll apply for it. Best watched on the big screen.
And as and when it becomes available online I'll post it up here. That will be in 2017 most likely.
