Be Careful What You Wish For

As he starts using its abilities, events take a turn for the worse, summoning a malevolent force that thrives on ambition and endangers those close to him.

Production Kicks Off Soon

The script was penned by Charley McDougall, with a star-studded cast featuring Nick Sagar, Ricky Norwood, Montana Manning, and Bradley Stryker himself.

Horror With Depth

As per the filmmakers, “The Monkey’s Paw” isn’t merely a conventional horror film offering shock value. Instead, it offers a profoundly personal and emotional exploration of how our desires can lead to self-destruction. McDougall expressed, “This tale has lingered with us for some time.” He further added, “The most effective horror stories linger in the mind, and that’s what we aim to achieve.” While a release date hasn’t been announced yet, both horror enthusiasts and aficionados of dark folklore should be eagerly anticipating this movie.
