Toronto. September 20, 2021. David J. Fernandes of David J. Fernandes Productions is pleased to announce that Creepy Bits, the bite-sized horror web series for the pandemic generation who've been glued to their phones, has wrapped principal photography. And these little morsels of terror will be served up weekly on Youtube, Instagram, Tik Tok, FB, Vimeo starting September 24, 2021, with the season 1 finale premiering on Halloween Eve, October 31, 2021.
Shot entirely in Hamilton, Ontario, Creepy Bits is an anthology that explores surveillance parenting, missing people, abandoned tunnels, creepy clowns, empty schools and a gruesome murder.
Written, directed, produced and edited by David J. Fernandes (RE-WIRE, Binge) Creepy Bits stars Madison Claringbold (Within the Deep, The Bookstore), Malaika Hennie-Hamadi (Age of the Living Dead), Daniela Rendon - Shazi (Haunted Hospitals), Andrew Ravindran (Toronto Short Film Festival-winner To No Man's Land), Casey Fleming (Paranormal 911), Elina Miyake Jackson (Age of Samurai: Battle for Japan) and 5 year old Emily Mitchell (Women Talking).
"More than a year into the new realities of a global pandemic, collapsing governments, and catastrophic climate change, it seems counter-intuitive that we may seek out things that make us anxious when we’re already feeling anxious. But I find something very satisfying about getting scared in a safe way because unlike real life, a scary movie always ends and it’s a relief when it’s over. Creepy Bits is about providing a little hit of relief from the actual terror of real life,” said Fernandes.
"Creepy Bits explores pandemic age themes of isolation, paranoia and distrust of authority, serving them up in bite-sized chunks you can watch anywhere, because we experience these things everywhere,” he continued.
Creepy Bits is produced by Simon Winterson (Adele, Eye Witness) with Gregory P. Bennett (Night Talk, The Bad Mother) serving as Director of Photography, Natalia Andrea Pozo as Key Makeup / SFX prosthetics, with production design by Natalie Robinson, costume design by Pamela Blackwood-Marques, and music composed by Adrian Ellis (Music of Madness, Holy Hell, Haphead, Clutch).
