Stars: Jessica Morris, Kaiwi Lyman, Jeff Adler, Jamie Bernadette | Written by Danny Draven, Shane Bitterling | Directed by Danny Draven
Danny Draven, who some genre fans will know as the director of Hell Asylum, Deathbed and other low budget fare, is back behind the camera for Ghost Asylum – a cheap (and audience-screwing) retitling of his 2012 film Reel Evil, which has already been released by 88 Films under its original title in 2014! The cast are fairly unknown so I won’t delve into their history in film here, it doesn’t need to be spoken about for this review to make sense.
Ghost Asylum is a found footage style horror movie, along the lines of Blair Witch and such, but sadly it doesn’t have the curiosity and originality of some found footage films, and instead follows cliques and falls flat in many areas throughout its short 78 minute running time.
The story follows some struggling film-makers,...

Independent horror writer/director Danny Draven (pictured) let us know that he’ll be a guest speaker at the 2009 National Association of Broadcasters Show in Las Vegas this April. He’ll be giving two classes: Producing & Directing Indie Films and Distribution for Indie Filmmakers.
For the producing/directing class, which takes place Sunday, April 19 from 10:30-11:30 a.m., Draven will offer advice and guidance for those looking to break into the film world, drawing from his knowledge and experience from the low-budget horror scene. The distribution class, being held Monday, April 20 from 10:30-11:30 a.m., will cover ways to sell and self distribute your film. Both sessions, Draven notes, will be heavily informed by his most recent experiences making the supernatural chiller Ghost Month.
Draven is enthusiastic about these opportunities and is confident they’ll have a positive effect, saying, “I’m very happy to be giving these lectures.
