Director Statement

"A Blood Moon Night" is a spin off of an earlier short film of mine known as "The Tetrad." These films were both intended to be demonic slashers based off of the blood moon prophecy. The antagonist known as "Rusty" is a fictional demonic figure who preys on whatever victims he can get his hands on during the eclipses, but only during the time of the tetrad eclipses. After each eclipse of a tetrad, Rusty disappears until the next one comes. In "A Blood Moon Night," his spirit takes over the body of a student. Rusty's catchphrase "A Blood Moon Night Will Make you Sleep Tight" was inspired by the classic catchphrase, "An Apple a Day Keeps the Doctor Away." Since the character was a killer doctor, he needed his own "Apple a Day" catchphrase. Or in this case, "A Blood Moon Night," catchphrase.
