In news that’s been bubbling in the cauldron for a while, five female directors are developing an anthology of horror films set in a small Tasmanian town, to be produced by Lizzette Atkins under Unicorn Films’ ‘Horror from Down Under’ slate. And you thought horror was a boy thing.
Currently in development, the untitled project will be directed by a collection of very determined and talented women who’ve become friends and collaborators within the small circuit of Australian women’s genre filmmaking.
