Film: THE LEGEND OF BEAVER DAM March 30, 2011

Part of the Wisconsin Film Festival.

DESCRIPTION: Around the campfire, the troop leader is telling spooky stories to the kids camping in the weeks. When the chilling story of Stumpy Sam comes to life, one of the nerdy kids steps forward to save the day. “We wanted to do something that both horror fans and musical geeks like us would like,” says Canadian codirector Jerome Sable. “So we hand-picked the cream-of-the-crop musical theatre talent for the cast, and then assembled the best horror special effects filmmaking team for the crew. What comes out at the other end is, we hope, a scare and a laugh and a catchy tune.”

Canada, 2010, 12 mins, video, dir. Jerome Sable and Eli Batalion
