Cinema  Viscera's  second  feature  film
is  a  modern  horror  tale  that  begins  like  a  gothic  ghost  story...
...and  ends  with  a  deadly  cat  and  mouse  game  through  the  Australian  bush.

With only nightmares for childhood memories, Lily Stone returns to her family home to find out what happened to her parents. Despite the locals’ warnings about an evil presence cursing the house, Lily crosses the threshold and discovers not all the ghosts that haunt us are dead. Apparitions is an exploration of fear, family and identity.

Horror can hold a spooky funhouse mirror up to society, reflecting where we are and what we are currently facing. Apparitions’ complex leads are women searching for their place and identity in a changing world, while kicking butt and looking out for each other. It’s an exploration of family, the one we are born into and the one we create – and not being doomed to repeat the mistakes of the past.

Cinema Viscera partnered with Australian government initiative Creative Partnerships Australia for a fundraising campaign where the first $7,500 in tax-deductible donations were matched dollar for dollar through MATCH Lab. The campaign raised 107% of its target, bringing in AU$10,673, which, with the MATCH Lab funds, came to AU$18,173 - giving us one heck of a kickstart into making our second movie!

With this and a large portion of our shooting budget secured, a script we are excited about and key cast attached, we are now kicking off pre-production to create our unique contemporary gothic horror drama, as well as continuing to work toward forging a sustainable model for independent filmmakers to produce and screen their work. With our first feature, Trench, we began to lay the foundations for a new distribution pathway for micro-budget features and plan to build upon this with Apparitions.

We at Cinema Viscera are dedicated to making new Australian genre films that have maximum emotional and visceral impact and a social conscience, while creating strong and prominent roles for women, in front and behind the camera. We have already produced a feature film that is about to be self-distributed and are excited to keep making films. We are not just working toward one project, but building a production company and creating a new model for producing and distributing our work, with the aim of building a new sustainable model for Australian independent film makers.

We would like to offer a massive THANK YOU to every one of the 47 souls who contributed to our crowdfunding campaign, as well as each and every one of you who spread the word or even gave us your kind words and encouragement!

Remember to bookmark this site for updates as we launch into pre-production and beyond over the next few months!
