ASH: A horror movie inspired by Silent Hill
Donation protected
Hello there horror movie lovers and fellow wanderers of Silent Hill! Welcome to Ash, an original psychological / horror / thriller, and spiritual successor inspired by the Japanese video game series Silent Hill. The story is set around a doctor and his group of friends, who fall victim to a paranormal haunting, after venturing into the woods near a old burned down town. The goal and the purpose of this project was to tell an original story, and create a beloved indie darling, using elements from "grade A" horror movies, like Hereditary and Jacob's Ladder. A horror movie that doesn't rely on jump scares, but is complemented by mood, scenery, acting, and cinematography. We have crafted a physiological dive into the mind of someone who has drifted far from the brink of insanity with our story.
Welcome to ASH

The reason for this GOFUNDME was to gain additional resources that we will need for post production when the movie is completed, and to assist with accommodations during the week of shooting, like food and hotel expenses. The script is complete as is the shot list, and character designs.
We begin filming August 14.
Ash has a completed screenplay, actors, camera equipment, and everything needed to begin filming next month. Any additional resources would help this project completion run a lot smoother. Unlike most Kickstarters for movies that need money to begin months or a year long worth of a development cycle, before a product is ever shown to the audience. Our movie has been in the oven for quite some time, and begins filming in just a few weeks.
The Story :
The story will center around Zack, a recent college graduate and doctor. Zack will join his friends, Mary, John, and Nolan, as they go camping in the haunted lands of Sunderland Hill. Jack Paraiso, the writer and director for the film, took inspiration from movies like "The Ritual" and episodes from the Twilight Zone.
Creature Designs :
Ash will feature 2 creatures. Our goal with the monsters was to have them complement the scenery and the nightmarish elements our production team is bringing to life. Think of them as ghosts in the background of a beautiful painting to help drive the visualization of insanity, and not a plot element that drives the movie forward.

CONCEPT VISUALS TRAILER : This video here was put together to explain the look and feel of ASH. We took clips from some of our favorite films that inspired the look and direction we are aiming for.
