‘ABCs of Death 2’ Entry, “‘Metamorphose,” Re-Cut for Festivals
The new version of the short film “Metamorphose,” directed by Sergio Morcillo, is heading to international festivals.
The previous version, “M is for Metamorphose,” was one of the candidates belonging to the short film # 26 in the anthology ABCs of Death 2. Now, the filmmakers have prepared a longer version with more blood and terror prior to his tour of festivals around the world.
The poster is a tribute to the big bands of the 80’s that plagued their videoclubs and is made by Jose Nieto (Kipon).
“The film is a tribute to the French horror film that has come in recent years. A real terror, visceral , direct and without prejudice. In ‘Metamorphose’ we’ll get into the skin of a young girl who will live a terrifying experience deep in the forest, when the bloody reality exceeds your worst nightmares.”
Starring by Marta Molero and Arturo de la Torre and produced by David Ambit and Lucia Salanueva responsible for the effects work in Inside and REC and Sergio Morcillo, too.
We have an exclusive first look at A Man in the Woods With an Axe, a blood-soaked, genre-twisting homage to 1980s slasher films.
Spanning four decades, A Man in the Woods With an Axe begins in the summer of 1987 before pushing into the modern era, weaving together timelines and perspectives in a way that builds both dread and intrigue.
Drawing inspiration from genre standouts like Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Hatchet, and The Cabin in the Woods, the film blends visceral horror with moments of dark humor, creating a uniquely balanced experience that honors tradition while carving its own identity.
Writer-director Dillon Brown (Primal Darkness) aims to deliver everything fans crave from a slasher while boldly subverting expectations with a mid-film twist that redefines the story.
“This is an unapologetic love letter to the films that made me fall in love with horror,” Brown tells Bloody Disgusting. “But I didn’t just want to recreate that feeling; I wanted to challenge it. About halfway through, the film takes a turn that completely changes how you view not only this story, but the genre itself.”
Brown describes the vintage-inspired production as “far and away the bloodiest film I’ve ever made,” with practical effects helmed by Cody Ruch (The Mill, Pig Hill), an instructor at Tom Savini’s Special Make-Up Effects Program.
From Horror Dadz Productions, A Man in the Woods With an Axe is currently in production and targeting an early 2027 release.
