Summaries

  • Clive finds himself with a strange connection to the mythical folklore being: it brings him good luck as long as he continues to feed it, but when a stranger arrives, Clive's life takes a dramatic turn.
  • In Orkney folklore there exists a supernatural being known as the "HogBoon," - a creature who lives under the mounds of Earth and brings good and bad luck to Farmers and their land. Following a German Air Raid on Orkney in World War Two, Clive finds himself with a strange connection to the mythical folklore being: it brings him good luck as long as he continues to feed it, but when a stranger arrives on the island determined to confront the HogBoon, Clive's life takes a dramatic turn. Made on no-budget, "The HogBoon" is a project by Douglas and Andrew Kyle filmed on the beautiful island of Orkney in their spare time. Creatively using the Orkney Folklore and landscape, this film was made with no financial backing or professional knowledge / input. They continue to make films, having a standalone Sci-Fi TV Show airing on YouTube, The Pandora Men, which follows in a similar vein of no budget / no limits production, now re-located to Aberdeen. Made to showcase undiscovered talent and express creative ideas and camera work, "The HogBoon" was the last film made while Douglas lived on Orkney, and completes the Orcadian Trilogy - which includes "The Song Of The Selkies" and "The StoorWyrm," both available on YouTube also.—Douglas Kyle
