A stop-motion horror fantasy film created by renowned artist Skinner (Mastodon, Adult Swim, Super Deluxe, High on Fire, Tony Hawk Pro Skater) and sculptor & monster maestro Ross Kennedy, Shrine of Abominations is finally set to make its grand debut.
The project has been filmed in secret over the past 6 years, and features collaboration from special effects legend Phil Tippett (Mad God) and other top animators at Tippett Studios.
And it’s set to make its World Premiere next month at Fantastic Fest.
As for plot, Shrine of Abominations is set “on the cursed world of Orbus Kaal, Gar-Gnargorath, the malevolent leader of the council of wizards, tries to invoke the cosmic horror forms of Demotep to begin his universal plans of revenge and domination. Gar Gnargorath’s plans to gain power may not be so easy, as the horrible being known as Morgogg also exists in this realm. Perhaps they should meet!”
The stop-motion animated cosmic tale is a culmination of Skinner and Kennedy’s affinity for Ray Harryhausen,
