WetWork Media and Clearwater Productions are set to begin shooting their film The Locals, which takes the current “found footage” horror sub-genre and places it within the familiar territory of the slasher and cannibal film framework. Shooting will take place in Los Angeles.
The Locals is being directed by Eric Anthony Pereira (who worked on Pirahna 3D‘s Second Unit), from his script and is being produced by Danny Lopes and Brandon Cottrell. The cast includes Devanny Pinn (Nude Nuns With Big Guns, Song of the Shattered), Danny Lopes (Torture Chamber), Angelina Armani (Laid to Rest II), Angie Savage (Cut), Brandon Slagle (2012: Ice Age, Vivid), Tawny Amber Young (Nude Nuns With Big Guns, Cut), Ryan L. Gilmore, Elske McCain (Jessicka Rabid), Erik Preston (Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Meyers), Asia Schneider, Bree Essrig, Matthew Evilsizor, Greg Duke, and Caroline Posada.
“Set in 1987, and told through the lens of two VHS camcorders,”The Locals” is a ferocious and merciless tale of the devastation of a group of young filmmakers who venture into the central California wilderness to film a shot on video slasher movie and soon find themselves systematically crippled, butchered and devoured by a family of feral cannibals who live in the woods nearby.”
The official website will launch soon. Check out the Facebook for now.
