“Wrightwood”
A Horror Short Film
Playing in the Nightmares
Film Festival!

Written by C+D Weiss

Wrightwood, a Horror Short Film, Screening in the Nightmares Film Festival October 21st – October 24th!

In the Summer of 2019, in collaboration with writer, producer, and director Skyler Caleb (Waking, Nix) and producer Rachel Amanda Bryant (In Bed With a Killer), we had the fantastic experience of working on the horror short film, Wrightwood. It is a horror-comedy with a twist and is set in a moody cabin in the woods!

Synopsis: Scott is hoping for a relaxing weekend, but finds his friends exhibiting bizarre behavior that is either an endless prank or something more disturbing. The film encapsulates everything we love about the horror genre. Mystery, suspense, and comedy. Take a gander at the Wrightwood trailer!

We are incredibly proud to be a part of this film that has been recognized by the Visioni Notturne (Grand Jury Prize), Idyllwild International Film Festival, Pasadena International Film Festival, Hobnobben Film Festival, Chattanooga Film Festival, Sioux City International Film Festival, and now the Nightmares Film Festival in Ohio!

We are nominated for two categories in the Nightmares film festival!

  • Best Writing in a short film
  • Best Lead Performance in a short film

We are pleased to announce that Wrightwood will be running in the Nightmare Film Festival from October 21st – October 24th, 2021! Wrightwood will be screened as part of the “Horror Shorts C” block of short films at the festival. Get your ticket here! You can purchase a single film ticket for only $12 or purchase an entire day festival pass for $99. VIP All-Access pass for $149 and includes entry to VIP bar and lounge.

We’ve always been a fan of those what-if Twilight Zone-style concepts, and this premise was inspired by a real trip we took to the woods with friends. What if you showed up late and everyone was acting really strange? We wanted to make a film that started out feeling almost like a sitcom but gradually became terrifying.
