Proof of Concept trailer for Sheer Malice web series.
Location: Dublin, Ireland
Type: Web series
Sheer Malice and Sheered Malice: The Raven Diaries were independent short films produced in 2013 and 2016 respectively. They had a successful run on the independent film festival circuit and Sheered Malice: The Raven Diaries was also nominated for an independent filmmaking award. Both short films were subsequently released on the VHX platform where they garnered a small cult following at an international level.
The Sheer Malice saga is a dark gritty thriller genre depicting sinister female serial killers dressed and disguised in their signature nylon outfits who torture and kill their prey. The plan is to develop a web series for the Sheer Malice saga with each webisode (5 -10 minutes in length) telling a story about a certain character or characters.
With each webisode storyline currently in development, the current plan is to create a proof of concept trailer for the purpose of generating funding to produce the web series via a crowd funding platform.
Female actresses required to play a Sheer Malice Raven** – The characters are typical everyday women in everyday lives but behind these innocent appearances are brutal and sadistic killers.
