HARBINGER
HARBINGER is an original new British horror feature film in the grand tradition of the Hammer and Amicus pictures of old, showcasing an exciting new monster: The Harbinger - a 'Zoltar' style fortune telling machine possessed by the spirit of a maniacal serial killer seeking resurrection and revenge.
HARBINGER boasts a cast packed with much-loved cult stars including Carole Ann Ford ('Susan' the original companion in 'Doctor Who'), Gary Webster (best known as Arthur's nephew Ray in 'Minder'), Jeanine Sothcott (most recently seen in 'Helloween'), Peter Woodward ('Crusade') and Tony Sands ('Moondial').
HARBINGER was written by Simon Cluett, best known for We Still Steal The Old Way starring Ian Ogilvy and Patrick Bergin and was directed by genre specialist James Crow. The production company, Shogun Films, is a small, family-owned indie modelled on the classic British horror studios of yesteryear, making classic genre movies with a modern twist.
The movie is completed and in post production and will be released by Trinity Content Partners worldwide towards Halloween. In the UK the film will be released on Blu Ray as well as digitally as part of our commitment to physical media.
We're asking for your help to finish the post production and to raise awareness for the film through film festival screenings and direct marketing. The distribution landscape has changed so much since 2020 and the burden of promotion has shifted from distribution companies to filmmakers. We hope that you'll help us raise awareness for a genuinely original horror character and a really fun genre film made with a huge amount of love and dedication.
Become Part of Harbinger
Not everyone encounters the Harbinger in the same way.
We’ve created a hierarchy of supporter rewards for those who feel compelled to step a little closer — from INITIATES receiving exclusive updates, through to those who claim artefacts from the film itself, including screen-used props and special thanks credits in the finished picture.
For those willing to go further still, a select few may ascend to the highest rank — IPSISSIMUS — attending a special screening and taking their place at the very top of the Harbinger’s order.
Choose your level… if you dare.
