The Scariest of Lakes!

Last night I attended the premiere of The Lake : The Lake trailer This well-written, well-directed, well-acted, well-monstered, all around well-made (and yes, scary!) short film, is the newest from Just Chorizo Productions.  Written and directed by Jason Dodson, who made his directorial debut in 2007 with the drama, The Accident , The Lake tells the story of a body of water, once believed to have healing powers, which drew in terminally-ill patients, seeking its potential.   But what happened to all those patients who came looking for a miracle?  A few young campers are about to find out!  Production Stills from The Lake  


And speaking of potential, The Lake has it.  Dodson's plans to turn the short into a feature are in the works, alongside producers Henry Saine and Colin Ebeling.  Saine, cousin of Dodson, recently made news when his first ever feature film The Last Lovecraft: The Relic of Cthulhu, made it into the Slamdance Film Festival, then landed a distribution deal with Dark Sky Films.  Oh, and who could forget Henry Saine's first two hilarious shorts Not in My Family and Love Royale, starring and written by Beth Shea and Leigh Hall?  


When will the feature version of The Lake hit a theater near you?  Stay tuned!
