Eastbourne indie film destined for Cannes needs public's help
13 Graves is a low budget ‘folk horror’ feature film which is to be shot in Broadstone Warren scout camp at the end of October.
Starring local actors Greg Draven, Jon Campling, and Gareth Wildig, and with 80 per cent of its cast and crew from the area, it needs the public’s help to fund shooting and post production costs.

Hide AdDirector John Langridge said, “Eastbourne is rich with talent, you don’t have to go to London to get it.
“You can make it here, and that’s exactly what we are going to do.
“We are committed to putting Eastbourne on the filmmaking map. There’s a breadth of talent in the town.”
The film follows two hitmen who, in disposing of their latest victim, are stalked by a malevolent supernatural force.

A crowdfunding campaign is running to help make 13 Graves as high quality as possible.
