Here is the trailer of a large soutyaric horror thriller entitled Straight until morning. This is “a romantic horror feature with lesbian leads on the beautiful and terrible things that people make in the name of love”.
The director of the film, Craig Ouellette, He explained: “Every character in the film is motivated by love. But obviously what some people love may not be what other people love, and there is conflict”.
I saw this film at the Film Film Festival and offers a unique mixture of horror and romance, following two women, Dani and Kaitlin, who meet by chance in a hot table and impulsively decide to turn together with Los Angeles.
Both women are in turning points in their life with Dani, trying to escape the ghosts of his past, and Kaitlin, chasing a future full of hope. But soon, their path takes a left detour, immersing them in a nightmare that will test the limits of their love and resilience.
The film evolves into a scenario of “House of Horrors” when Dani and Kaitlin cross paths with an apparently pious couple who hosts much darker intentions. Kidnapped and locked up in the most disturbing family of the family, they are forced to fight brutal for survival against their unbridled kidnappers.
I really liked the movie! As I said in my review, “This film does not avoid showing the heartbreaking lengths that people will survive, nor does it drop to compromise on its message: the struggle for love and identity is worth every gram of blood, sweat and tears.Straight in the morning It is a thrill of romanticism and terror. “
I also included an interview with the director below:
What was the inspiration for your movie? How did you come the idea?
“Neal McLaughlin, the co-writer, had the idea of making a romantic horror film, Ala True Romance meets the hostel. This is where it started and it was a long journey to create and balance the tones of romanticism and horror in something that the audience of the festivals seem to really have fun.”
Tell us about you. What is your background? How long have you been a director?
“I was a narrator from the first grade when I wrote my first story” The Adventures of Legoland “. It is brilliant! As for the films, it was at the Liceo di Dallas, TX that I understood the magic of editing and the moment when two shots are put together that created a completely new world. From that moment on I was accused!”
What inspires you to work within gender cinema and tell this type of stories?
“I love suspense. And I love that horror (and science fiction, fantasy etc.) allows us to immerse ourselves in the stories with your head held high. We do not have to cover things and we can use our imaginations to tell extravagant stories that are put on the ground all over the world.
What was your favorite part of the film process for this project?
“Oh friend! So many parts that I love. Write, mount, work with the actors and the crew to create a world that otherwise does not exist.”
What are you most proud of this movie?
“The reactions of the public to crowded festivals projections have been fantastic. Feeling a audience, cheerfulness, screaming, shivering and being on the road that we have decided to do it really means so much. I am proud to be able to create something that is really connecting to people on an emotional and visceral level.”
What is a favorite story or a moment from the making of the film you would like to share?
“So many people have given their time and their effort to create this. I am forever grateful to all of them.”
What was your most demanding moment or experience you had while you shoot your movie?
“Everything was difficult to die for. Making independent films is one of the most difficult things to do. I knew it would have been more difficult than my many short films, but it was much more difficult. Collect money, resources, make things seem well with little.”
In this case, how has your film changed or deferred by its original concept during pre-production, production and/or post-production? How did the way you approach future projects as a result?
“From the original concept to today, the greatest change is that it has become a strange film. A few years in the 15th and a half journey to make it, Neal and I realized how stronger the film would have been stronger if it were a strange story. It just opened to a penny, because of a cent, because of a penny, due to a block, to a commitment, to a commitment, due to a lot of things, due to a limit, Interesting, due to a lot of things, due to a limit and have become a lot of things to do, due to a limit and have become a lot of things to do, due to a limit and have become a lot of things to do.
Who were some of your collaborators and actors of the film? How did you start working with each other?
“Bonnie Jean Tyer, who plays Kaitlin Sanbourne, one of the two protagonists and is a producer, a wardrobe and more in the film is an extraordinary woman with so much passion and so many skills that I have constantly impressed me. We met a work of a day of team building, and over the years they have started working together on his western series, and then this is a powerful cinema that we started A job for one day.
“Kelsey Christian, who plays Dani Depree, the other protagonist, is a fabulous actress and singer of Nashville. We met through the auditions and was so purely the character and is a great singer (who is important for the film). I am grateful that he blocked all the ups and downs of the project and has always been a supporter of the film.
“He brought his heart and soul to the project. In truth, all the actors, Bill Hengstenberg, Michael Gmur, Maria Olsen and Travis Lincoln Cox, as well as all the secondary actors have been incredible. I love working with the actors and are fantastic in awe for the incredible ways in which they can create emotions.
“Behind the goal we had a fantastic set of manufacturers and crew members who really gave so much for this film. As I said before, I’m grateful to all of them.”
What is the best advice you have ever received as director and what would you mean to the new filmmakers?
“Take the business lessons. It is something that I would like to have done it, but now I have not had to understand all these business things along the way. Every film you make (if it is for profit) is a small business (or a great) and having that basic understanding is useful. Make the films (and live life) with passion, without being precious, without precious, without making a passion, without making a passion, without being a passion, without being a passion, without being a passion, Precious, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without being precious, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without passion, without making a passion, without passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without making a passion, without Passion, without making passion, without making passion, without making passion, without making passion, with passion.
What are your plans for your career and what do you hope that this film does for this? What kind of stories would you like to tell going on?
“I am ready to make films, both smaller independent films and great images in the studio. I love the idea of jumping back and forth between the scales of projects because each of them has their multi and their minus and provide ways to creatively tell stories.”
What is your next project and when can we expect to see it?
“I have two scripts of features ready to go for the fact that we are in the fundraising phase. So one of those two, or if someone had a script and a plan I would be interested in exploring other opportunities too.”
Where can we find more than your work and where can we contact you the interested parties? Do you have a website or a youtube channel/vimeo? Do social media manage?
“My website is www.craigofilm.com. Craigofilm is also my YouTube channel, also Instagram and Facebook. The website of the film is www.loveissescary.com and @strarightillmorningmovie on IG.”
