The esteemed genre writer and former Rue Morgue editor's directorial debut will bow in Toronto this coming June at the World Wide Short Film Festival!

Executive produced by Guillermo del Toro, and having already received heaps of praise, support and contributions (edited by CUTTING MOMENTS and THE THEATRE BIZZARE's Doug Buck, and cinematography from HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN's Karim Hussain) from the horror community, it's certainly exciting to see THE CAPTURED BIRD make its debut. The film is "a darkly poetic fable that begins with a little girl drawing figures of people with chalk on the cement of a playground. She takes notice of an unusual crack in the pavement that is seeping a mysterious black fluid, which she follows to an ominous building. Inside, she encounters several bizarre phenomena, including walls that bleed black and tentacles that emerge from the ceiling to touch her. She then witnesses the birth of five terrifying supernatural beings that threaten the existence of her world.”

THE CAPTURED BIRD plays the World Wide Short Film Festival on June 9. For info and tickets, head right here. For much more on the film, head to its official site.
