Experiencing Interruptions?

A Broken Oath

A weary, small-town sheriff copes with loss, addiction, and mounting debt. But, a pending retirement is cut short after his child's killer strikes again.

Veteran Film Productions presents a dark comedy prequel to our award-winning, micro-horror short: Grease Ghoul. This is a Lights Film School student film (second assignment).
