Crow Fan Film "Days of Sodom" Indiegogo Round II Launches

Check out the teaser trailer here:


The Indiegogo campaign is live here: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/days-of-sodom-a-crow-fan-film#/

This film is a labor of love for the fans by the fans and at the present time is three years in the making. It will feature Vernon Wells (Commando, Mad Max), Robert Mukes (House of 1,000 Corpses), Johnny Alonso (Gotham, One Tree Hill) pro-wrestler Maven Huffman, John Philbin (Point Break, Return of the Living Dead, Children of the Corn) and many other talented actors.

This is a horror-centric take on the Crow mythology unrelated to the remake starring Bill Skarsgard coming out this year or the original 1994 film starring Brandon Lee. Days of Sodom is about a police detective named Thorn Gray who returns from the dead to hunt down the former friends and fellow officers who murdered his wife in cold blood.

The cast and crew have filmed about 45% of the movie already; shooting is set to start again in early June and expected to wrap by August.

For the first time ever, fans of The Crow francise can actually sign up to be in a Crow-inspired film: campaign perks include being a background actor, getting your name or your picture in the film in various ways, or even fighting the protagonist yourself. There are also a variety of screen-used props available and perhaps best of all, the ability to actually be in a scene with veteran action and horror actors like Vernon Wells or Robert Mukes.

The campaign is live now and will run through mid-May.

This is the second campaign for this film, with the first (March 2023) having raised more than $31,000.

The finished film will be released for free on Youtube in 2025, but backers can get limited-edition blu ray discs through the Indiegogo campaign only.

We Hit Half a Million Views!

Just yesterday this blog passed 500,000 views. I started posting here back in 2009 as a way to display my Jason-related artwork. Since then I've done deep dives into hockey mask history and all things makeup and prop-related in the Friday the 13th franchise and I want to thank everyone who stops by to check out all the photos I've collected from around the web and read my analysis. I've been away from this for several months but I have a couple of Jason-related projects underway I'll be posting soon.
