Guns N’ Roses Guitarist Slash has been trying to transition from musician to filmmaker, and he’s yet to make any sort of impact, but he’s still giving it the old try!
Slash has produced several horror projects through his company Slasher Films, including the feature film Nothing Left to Fear (2013), where he served as producer, the short film The Hell Within (2015), which he produced, and the supernatural thriller The Breach (2022), also produced by Slash through the company.
Next up, he has signed on to executive produce the feature documentary Black Zombie ahead of a world premiere this weekend at SXSW, says THR.
The site adds that the famed rocker and genre film aficionado is also executive producing Sundown, a Canadian indie horror feature from director Rebekah McKendry that wrapped production in Winnipeg this week.
In the film, three generations of women reunite in a remote cabin to avenge a loved one’s death, only to discover their captive isn’t who he seems to be, and his family is closing in, waiting for sundown.
Sundown stars Olwen Fouéré, Camille Sullivan and Summer H. Howell.
As for Black Zombie, from director Maya Annik Bedward, it will debut at SXSW on March 13 as the doc unearths the buried origins of the fictional zombie to reclaim it as a symbol of survival and spiritual resistance.
“I’ve always believed horror reflects the fears and truths buried in society. Black Zombie uncovers the real origins behind one of horror’s most iconic figures, and I’m proud to help bring that story forward,” said Slash.
Black Zombie traces the evolution of the zombie character from Haitian Vodou, to White Zombie, Night of the Living Dead and The Serpent and the Rainbow. The film features appearances by Slash, Yves-Grégory Francois, Anderson Mojica, musical artist and Vodou priest Erol Josué, special effects legend Tom Savini (Night of the Living Dead) and filmmaker Zandashé Brown (Horror Noire).
