A raw and nasty throwback to the golden age of VHS horror, PIGSHIT follows a group of young adults who return to an old abandoned pig farm for a late-night party. Unbeknownst to them, the farm holds a dark secret—years ago, a young boy met a horrific end here, and his grieving father vanished into the woods. But now, he’s back. Fueled by madness and bloodlust, the deranged farmer will stop at nothing to protect his land from the outsiders—some of whom may know more about the boy’s death than they’ve ever admitted.
Joe La Scola, known for his work on the popular YouTube series and podcast Movie Dumpster, serves as the film’s Director of Photography, ensuring PIGSHIT delivers the gritty, nostalgic aesthetic fans of classic VHS horror crave.
Adding to the film’s intense atmosphere is composer Mike Trebilcock, known for his work on genre films like STREAM and Crackcoon. Trebilcock, also the frontman of the cult-favorite band The Killjoys, brings a haunting and pulse-pounding score to PIGSHIT, blending Southern-fried slasher grit with a synth-heavy, retro horror feel.
“This film is a gnarly, dirty throwback to the kind of movies I grew up renting,” says writer/director Bobby Canipe Jr. “PIGSHIT doesn’t hold back—it’s mean, nasty, and exactly the kind of slasher fans of ‘80s Southern, backwoods horror are going to love.”
The film boasts a cast packed with indie horror favorites, including:
– Dan Grogan (Mutilator 2)
– Mel Heflin (The Profane Exhibit)
– Ryan Martel (Amityville Ripper)
– Kelsey Baker (Grandma)
– Chris Lutterloah (Night of the Strangers)
– Mason Hamby, vocalist for the band HEFT
– Josh Schafer (Lunchmeat VHS)
– Patrick Moran (Jack-O, Vampire Trailer Park) in a special appearance
