HELP US GET TO CANNES

To all of you who’ve donated, shared, or supported in any way—We can’t thank you enough.

Thanks to your generosity, we’ve raised $3,346 so far! That’s well beyond the original goal, and it’s what’s getting us to Cannes not just physically, but strategically.

But we’re not done yet.
We’re now pushing for our final goal of $4,500—and every dollar from here on out is going directly into:

  • 🎨 Professionally designed marketing materials (posters, one-sheets, pitch decks)

  • 📣 Visibility tools to stand out at the Marché du Film

  • 🎟️ Access to key networking events and market screenings

  • 🧰 Emergency production and travel support as I prep to make the biggest pitch of my life

This trip is about launching The Hellgate into the world—and showing the industry what indie horror is capable of. You’ve helped make this real. Now let’s go the distance.

Please keep sharing the campaign if you can. The more eyes we get on this, the more power we bring to Cannes.

🖤 With gratitude,
DJ

The Hellgate

Check out a sneak peek from our upcoming feature film THE HELLGATE

We Lived

In the aftermath of a catastrophic event, a virus that appeared to target anyone under the age of twenty years and past the age of thirty, the world’s population consists only of those in their third decade. Unable to reproduce and carrying a virus waiting to kill them on their 30th birthday, those left behind create family where they can find it, living a life with a literal expiration date, knowing when, and how, they will die.

The stalwart Luke, his nurturing wife Amanda, the irreverent Oliver, the melancholy Sadie, and the young and optimistic Nathan have escaped the horror of their pasts and found each other in a world that keeps turning, even after an apocalypse. Each struggle in their own ways, both with the losses they’ve suffered and the certainty of death before them, but are doing all they can to stave off fear, loneliness, and despair together.

A man arrives to their neighborhood heralding an idea, already played out in other communities, of an event, a party, where those in attendance celebrate their lives and what it means to feel alive together one last time...and then taking their own lives before dawn.
