Upcoming Indie Sci-Fi/Horror Film 'The Quantum Terror' is Bringing Love, Madness and Tentacles

A twin sister lost. An underground maze. A nameless insanity from outside of time and space awaits.

The Quantum Terror



So, what is The Quantum Terror?

We're passionate about sci-fi/horror that involves crazy creatures with tentacles, teeth, claws, and off the wall concepts, that weave together in a good story. We have fun with these ideas, but take them very seriously, too. We aim to bring together some of the top independent film making talents residing in Austin, TX and beyond to demonstrate that (now more than ever) artistry over a big studio budget can make for excellent film making.

We plan on using practical effects, animation, miniatures, puppets, and minimalist sets, combined with intimate storytelling and good acting to create an alternate reality, inhabited by impossible creatures of madness. We've reverse engineered some big budget effects so that we can recreate them using cheaper materials, secured the perfect house location, and converted a garage into a mini sound stage. Combined with clever lighting and photography, we believe that you'll never be able to notice or tell that you're not watching a big budget Hollywood film.

The Story

Samantha Carol's twin sister Silvia has gone missing, without a trace. The only clues that Sam has to go on are notebooks filled with strange quantum physics equations combined with scribblings about the occult, that have been left behind. Silvia's ex-boyfriend and fellow college classmate claims he has seen her going into the nearby drainage tunnels that run under the town he lives in, however he himself is a suspect in her disappearance.

Accompanied by Sam's concerned ex-lover Lucy, with new boyfriend in tow, the now group of four go down into the tunnels where strange alien creatures and alterations of reality, will confront them with their deepest desires and darkest inner truths. Now, the question isn't just whether they will find Silvia or not, but if it's even possible for them to ever get out again.

Production Philosophy


We've been inspired by the successful production of other small, crowdfunded films that have come before us, such as StudioADI's Harbinger Down (directed by Alec Gillis) Tom Woodruff, Jr's Fire City, and Alan Moore & Mitch Jenkins' His Heavy Heart. It is our belief that it is the artists behind a film, and not huge amounts of money that bring quality to a production. A smart script and pre-planning through storyboards and concept design can make all the difference. That's why we think that for as little as our 2.5K pledge goal, we can make an indie film that doesn't feel like it was shot entirely in a parking lot. Of course more money will help, and that's why we have stretch goals, but we know that what we do with the money we earn will truly amaze you.

Melany Rose - Help Support This Indie Horror Film

Horror movie Melany Rose seeks to raise funds through crowdfunding.

Synopsis:
A dark psychological thriller following Dr. Sullivan as she attempts to expose a government conspiracy surrounding Dr. Freeman and his test subjects made up of former death row inmates.


Pensacola Florida based Zero House Productions has been working to bring the full-length Melany Rose film into reality. “We found a great cast and crew,” shares director/writer Javan Garza, “but as we headed into production we knew we would need additional financial support to make the movie we want to make.”

Melany Rose is a take on Project MKUltra, a government funded mind control program operated covertly through the CIA. “I wanted to take those concepts about human experimentation and twist them into a present-day atmospheric horror movie,” says Garza.

“We landed on a great location in southern Alabama, have a cast I have the up most confidence in, and have a growing crew of dedicated professionals – but it gets expensive fast to make a full-length movie. From costumes, special effects, and dressing out the location space – everything that is shown on screen has a price tag,” states Garza of the filmmaking process. “Then logistic issues like generators, additional production gear, even down to having food and water on set – so many pieces come together behind the scenes too.”

With that, an Indiegogo campaign has been launched to support Melany Rose. Perks range from a $1 contribution which gets an official ‘thank you’ in the film’s credits to posters, scripts, t-shirts, and even an opportunity for an official producer credit.

“I am grateful to be surrounded by amazingly creative people. We want every of angle of Melany Rose, from the music to the lighting to be our best foot forward. I’d like to encourage everyone to take a moment and follow us across social media, invite your friends to do the same, and help us get the word of mouth moving.”

Garza remarks about how the film and entertainment community is continuously growing – and how supporting current genre geared projects can make all the difference in supporting indie filmmakers. “Most indie movies are true labors of love – we do this because we want to make a story that we believe is worth telling. And we hope you feel the same way about Melany Rose."

Please read on for more information on how you can help make a difference.


Toolbox Murders 3 will Shock and Mesmerize Horror Film Fans

The Toolbox Murders movie franchise has been terrifying viewers since 1977 when the first film, directed by Dennis Donnelly and produced by Tony DiDio, was released. Toolbox Murders became an instant horror classic that was banned in the United Kingdom and has served as an inspiration for generations of independent, horror filmmakers. In 2003, Tony hired Tobe Hooper and rebooted the Toolbox Murders franchise, which left an indelible mark on viewers who were exposed to a truly grotesque super-natural villain that reveled in unprecedented gore and violence using his trademark tools. On August 4th, 2015, Shout!Factory will release the third movie in the series entitled Toolbox Murders 2 in the U.S. The movie will horrify audiences around the country.

Tony DiDio has finally assembled a team of talented filmmaking professionals to build on the legacy of these three horror classics. The director of Toolbox Murders 3 will be Kevin Connor who directed other horror favorites like Motel Hell, The House Where Evil Dwells, and Frankenstein.

In addition to an outstanding production team, Toolbox Murders 3 may also involve acting talent familiar to fans of previous movies in the franchise as well as actors like David Arquette, Rob Zombie and Sheri Moon Zombie.

The script has been written, and the film crew is preparing to begin shooting, but this project is still looking for the support from fans. In order to complete this project, the Toolbox Murders team will need $325,000 and has sponsored a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo. If you were a fan of the earlier Toolbox Murders or just someone who loves to scream, please consider backing this worthwhile project from one of Hollywood’s most esteemed film producers.
