What is your film about?

Luci or better knowned by her clients, Madame Melpomene, as sweet as she could seem, she pays the bills by serving men through BDSM.

There's new people requesting service, but who is she really dealing with?

This film intends to aim for a very gruesome and gory vibe. 
It will contain, violence, sexual scenes, and SA.
 

 Who is working on it? 

I'm hoping to finally unite as one and bring this film to life with insanely talented friends I've made these past years in my now home Houston Tx.

Besides me, Cassimoon (Cassandra Luna) will be working on it as the director, writer, FX makeup artist, costume designer, lead actress and film editor.

Beautiful cinematography, intensive FX practical effects, talented actors... and the list goes on!

- LEO LOPEZ as Director of Photography, Production Designer and       Colorist.

- TAM LO as Assistant Director, Script Supervisor and Location manager.

- GZ STUDIOS 8 - Christian Rosario as BTS videographer.

- JOSH THIGPEN, 4 x World's Strongest Man competitor - supporting actor.

- SYDNIE WACHS as supporting actor.

- MICHAEL L. BENITEZ as supporting actor.

- NICOLAS REGER as supporting actor.

- TRAVIS WESTMORELAND as supporting actor.

I would also love to be able to hire around 4 more production assistants, 2 grips, a total of 8 actors and booking around 5 locations to shoot this film that I estimate around 13 days total filming.
 

 Why are you the right person/people to make it? 

As a fan of psychological horror - gore genre, FX practical makeup artist; as an artist in general, I am confident I will be able to offer something to talk about to the spectators of this genre. 
 

What is urgent or relevant about this story at this moment in time? 

The response towards my character Madame Melpomene on socials was very positive that confirmed I wasn't the only one that fell in love with her. Left many people craving for her background story.

Who is she? Why so gruesome? So many unanswered questions that the film will answer.
 

What stage of the filmmaking process are you at, and what is your anticipated timeline for completing it?

As of now, I've finished the screenplay and script.
Looking to hire more people, booking locations and finding food/restaurant sponsor. Hoping to start shooting early 2025.
