Witchman Films is a new production company set up by Paul Duane and Nick Franco at 1185 Films to make genre films in Ireland & the UK. Their first film, All You Need Is Death, premiered in October 2023 at the prestigious Beyond Festival in Los Angeles, and goes on theatrical release in the USA, Ireland & the UK in April 2024.
Strong, original and surprising genre films, made with ambition and skill, will never go out of fashion. While big-budget middle-of-the-road dramas crash and burn without finding an audience, smaller, more niche films are finding success via the multitude of streaming platforms and the online word-of-mouth that passes through the genre film community.
