Island of the Blind Dead (2015)
3 min | Short, Horror
Directors: Emma Dark, Merlyn Roberts
Stars: Emma Dark, Merlyn Roberts, Elias Loumakis, Sharon Loumakis
A fan made faux feature film trailer which pays homage to Tombs of the Blind Dead (1972). The short is the brain child of film makers Emma Dark and Merlyn Roberts. Both Emma and Merlyn are huge horror and Tombs of the Blind Dead fans. Island of the Blind Dead imagines there may have been a fifth film in the series, which then became lost, the trailer subsequently recovered and restored some years later. This homage was made whilst holidaying in St. George South, Corfu. It came as a last-minute brain wave after several days trapped inside during storms and was never intended to have high production values.
