Apple Jack

En savoir plus

"Apple Jack" was the winner of Best Film in the Los Angels short film festival 2003. Written and directed by Mark Whiting, who is widely known for his legendary production design for the animation film "The Iron Giant", the film has shocked viewers with it`s breathtaking night time forest scenes and hilarious actors. The film score was produced by Toby Dammit in New York City and features a 21-member orchestra. The music is in the traditional style of 1940`s Walt Disney orchestral scores combined with raw American blue grass and hair raising 1950’s science fiction horror.

"Apple Jack" is narrated throughout by country music legend Randy Travis. The entire film takes on place on a farm in mid-western America on the eve of Halloween 1938 - the legendary evening of the Mercury Theatre Broadcast of "The War Of The Worlds". In fact the broadcast itself is prominent in the film, as the voice of Orson Welles himself guides both viewer and actors helplessly into the film`s magnificently horrific ending.
