New Take on an Old Tale
31 October 2018
Black Shuck - The demon dog of Norfolk, UK. In the 16th Centruy a devil dog was reported to have stalked through a church. Over the years it became embedded in folklore that to see Black Shuck could foreshadow an imminent death.

This film subverts that trope by casting Shuck as more of a companion spirit walking beside someone who may be considering an unfortunate response to grief.

A short film that was shot on a crowd funded small budget. All the locations are local to North Norfolk and whilst there was almost nno budget for set design, creative use of online resources allowed for striking locations to be found. In fact I believe a central location was found by trawling though Air BnB.

The film is more than the sum of its parts and reflects the passion and care used in its creation,
