Director Statement

“The Damned Thing” is reimagined modern adaptation of Ambrose Bierce’s short story “The Damned Thing” (public domain). It’s a mystery-horror-sci-fi hybrid that explores our internal fears of unknown and supernatural. Produced on micro-budget in rural Ohio and starring “micro-budget indie star” Rick Montgomery Jr, this series is my own take on popular short story - written over 100 years ago by Ambrose Bierce - one of the most original classic mystery-horror writers.
