Ansel Faraj is crowdfunding TODD TARANTULA

Ansel Faraj, who has worked with a number of DARK SHADOWS alumni over the last few years, is looking to crowdsource the funding for his next project, TODD TARANTULA.

Here's a brief summary of the film's story:

TODD TARANTULA is the story of a young rebellious man living under the shadow of his crime-lord father, set against the backdrop of an alternate Los Angeles. One evening while going out, Todd discovers the body of a recently murdered man in his apartment's garage. He immediately reports his discovery to the police, only to return moments later to find that the body and all traces of the murder have vanished.

The cast includes Christopher Pennock of DARK SHADOWS, and Steve Railsback, a veteran actor who could teach Nicolas Cage a thing or two about playing on-screen maniacs.

Faraj is looking to raise $25,000 to complete the film. His Indiegogo site has several tiers of donations, with rewards ranging from a cast photo to production credits. The campaign ends April 4, 2014.
