Writer/Producer Kev Hopgood is a Kino regular, having screened his previous shorts (STORY TIME & COLD CALLER) at our Short Film Open Mic. Kev brought his new WWII horror project to a Kino Writers group last summer and within a matter of days director Dustin Curtis Murphy came on board joining Kev and co-producer Marius Smuts. With the help of Greenlit the film was successfully crowdfunded and we had two days of production in the fall/winter of 2019. We’re currently putting the finishing touches (score and sound design) on The Last Confession with intentions to release it this summer.
