At the end of April we shared the trailer for the upcoming horror convention documentary FANTASM with you, and today we have a look at the poster for the Kyle Kuchta directed flick below.
FANTASM analyzes the tight-knit community that attends horror conventions in an exploration of how the genre brings fans together. Kuchta, who attended his first convention at age 15, says of the project…
"Fantasm was filmed over six conventions, and I felt myself growing closer and closer to the genre that we all love so much. It means a lot to be able to share that love with people, and that's what Fantasm is all about."
In addition to a variety of devoted genre fans, FANTASM features insight from several popular horror actors and filmmakers, including Tom Atkins (ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK), Heather Langenkamp (A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET), Amanda Wyss (A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET), Lloyd Kaufman (THE TOXIC AVENGER), Joe Lynch (WRONG TURN 2) and more.
After being shot at six different conventions throughout the country, Fantasm is currently in post-production. Says Kuchta…
"The film is being submitted to festivals and conventions. We're really excited to be releasing it in the fall when the convention season and the horror community are thriving full-force."
