Graveyard of the Dead

I’ve just been in touch with an upcoming film director from Spain called Vick Campbell (not a particularly Spanish name!) who is a director of horror films.

Vick was born in Barcelona SPAIN in 1980 and started filming in 1997 ( horror shorts, fantastic & gore).  In 2007 he  filmed his first feature GRAVEYARD OF THE DEAD aka El Monte de las Animas.  The film honours Amando de Ossorio’s Blind Dead series.  This film appeared on DVD in September of this year in Europe and USA & Canada.  His second film is “The Undertaker” aka El Sepulturero ( a history of the 1920 horror and fantastic film genre).  The film was completed in August 2009.  Next year he has plans to start two new films.  Busy guy!

His influences are Fulci, Corman, Schnaas, Jean Rollin…

Check out the Teaser of his first film: Tombs of the Blind Dead

Always happy to promote new talent in this genre.

Hmm… as I’m also a composer, I wonder whether he needs a soundtrack scoring.  Just a thought ;-)
