NO ONE IS COMING

Director:  The Barber Brothers

Starring: Breanne Solis and Jeff Jensen

Screenwriter:  Nathaniel Barber

Cinematography: Matthew Barber

Music by:  Juan Carlos Enriquez

Genre:  Horror

Tagline: Don't Bother Screaming!

DIRECTOR'S STATEMENT

The inception of “No One Is Coming” began one night while writer, Nathaniel Barber, was staying in a cabin while shooting a horror short when it occurred to him what would happen if someone walked up the deck to the cabin and tried to force themselves inside.

The goal behind No One Is Coming is to tell an old-fashioned ghost story. On a thematic level, it explores a character that is forced to discover her own inner strength. In the end, the film is about how a person faced against an impossible obstacle is more capable of overcoming such a feat than they might have thought possible.

The picture is visually influenced by the works of John Carpenter and eighties horror movies. The appearance of the antagonist  is greatly inspired by Werewolf of London (1935). We also attempted to imitate the visual style and editing of eighties horror films.

Our ultimate hope is that the picture engages the audience through its creepy sequences and the progression of the protagonist’s development. And if we’re lucky, it will leave the audience with a fair amount of goosebumps.
