HEN PARTY MASSACRE is written by Sam Kurd, directed by Rebecca Atkinson-Lord and produced by Arch 468. It's what you’d expect the lovechild of Bridesmaids and The Evil Dead to look like, with a sharp sprinkling of Scream and lots of fake blood (we hope it’s fake). It’s about survival, female friendships, overcoming adversity, and how cabins in the woods are *always* a terrible idea.

HEN PARTY MASSACRE is a mash up of your favourite horror, comedy, and girl gang movie. Drawing on classic tropes from each genre, it offers a fresh and funny take that feels decidedly unique.

You can click below to see a gallery of some rough and ready storyboarding, and also check our director Sam Kurd's Pinterest moodboard here.
