Studio 605 and director Roman “Rojo” Jossart has announced last year that they would be following up their slasher flick The Campground with two sequels that will be filmed back to back. Now, that has changed with the announcement of The Campground: The Requel. What is a requel you ask? Well, I will let the Indiegogo page explain that for ya.
The Campground: The Requel will be the 3rd slasher feature from Studio 605. In 2013 Studio 605 released The Campground. Quickly doors starting opening and the film went on to play in Film Festivals and got nominated for 5 awards fromHorror Society including: Best Indie Horror, Best Director, and Best FX. After the successful release of our 2nd slasher The Woods Within we decided to go back to camp and deliver one hell of a film. However, we need YOUR help!
The Campground: The Requel is exactly what it sounds like. A reimagining and a sequel all in one! The original The Campground film was good for what it was but looking back we know we can make it 605x better! Not only do we want to use this rare moment to redeem ourselves on certain plot points but also deliver a much more in depth story and more likable characters other than showcase the killer, Charlie Varsin.
SynopsisIn 1980 Haley Varsin took her son Charlie on his 10th birthday to an abandoned campground called Little Farm on the River. She told him she had a special gift for him that was waiting in an old barn. After they both entered the barn Haley took a screwdriver from a nearby bench and stabbed Charlie viciously over and over again. The murder got her locked up in Echo’s Grove mental institute. Now in present day a group of young adults decide to celebrate a birthday party of their own at the campground, but it is only a matter of time until Charlie has his say. The film will follow the character of Heidi and Kevin as they fight to survive their night at the campground, but that’s not where it ends. After all this is a requel, not a remake. The surviving characters will go on to explore the legend of Charlie Varsin and discover that there is something much larger going on rather than just your typical ghost story. We are not just giving you the same movie again, but a much more in depth story and characters you really want to root for.
I support Studio 605 in all their horror efforts and will be helping this film anyway I can. If you can chip in and help them out then please hit up the IGG link above. If you can’t, then please share the link so those that can will be able to!
