Director Gui Pereira's Award-Winning Horror Projects
Thrilling International Audiences
(March, 2017, Los Angeles, CA) Director Gui Pereira’s horror projects are receiving international attention! The Brazilian film director has been very active in the horror genre, and has earned several awards for his work.
One of his most recent projects Passage 379 earned multiple awards for him: Best Short Film and Best Score from the Los Angeles Horror Competition, and other awards from the The International Horror Hotel Film Festival and Spotlight Horror Film Awards.
Passage 379 is the story of Emily, who on her birthday, buys a Wicka book and decides to create a ritual with her friends in order to save a lost soul.
“This short film was inspired by a script that my friend and horror director Jacob Klarkowski wrote back in college. I always loved horror movies but had never directed anything quite in that genre, so I decided to give it a try. I put together a group of very talented actors, and couldn’t be happier with the results.”
Passage 379 should be available for online viewing around the beginning of next month.
Born in Brazil, Gui frequently returns to Sao Paulo
to work on film projects. One of his most recent Brazilian projects is
31 Days of Horror, which he created for the Brazilian
website ccine10.com.br
The series and its two seasons have attracted
over thirty thousand viewers so far, and was nominated for the
Best Original Documentarial Series award at the
Brazilian Rio Webfest.
Gui has established himself as one of the biggest
names in Brazilian Film Industry. As a very young director, he has already
worked with the biggest names in Brazil such as Tom Cavalcante,
Chitãozinho & Xororó, Jackson Antunes, Françoise Furton and many
others. He coordinates his work between Los Angeles and Brazil.
“I’m developing another feature film to start
production later in 2017 in the horror genre. Some big names are already
attached to it and I can’t wait until start the production! I’ll be releasing
more information on that project soon. Besides that, I’m also producing
Ryan’s Stockstad’s passion project Eggs which
will star Wayne Whitaker and horror muse Lynn
Lowry.”
We will be bringing you more details on
director Gui Pereira’s upcoming exciting horror genre projects
