Hillsborough Road The New 80's Horror Movie That Makes Horror Fun Again

 

We’re Larry Sands and Erick Kaslov, independent filmmakers and longtime collaborators who grew up loving the ’80s horror movies that made audiences scream, laugh, and leave the theater talking.

 

We've Made A Horror Film. We Want to Make Horror Fun Again!

We’re bringing that spirit back with HILLSBOROUGH ROAD, our new ’80s-inspired horror film based on the New Jersey urban legend of Pig Lady Road, a mysterious figure said to haunt a stretch of road and terrorize those who encounter her.

Erick wrote, produced, and directed the film, while Larry produced, edited, acted in and served as cinematographer.

HILLSBOROUGH ROAD is our love letter to classic ’80s horror and independent filmmaking. We want audiences to scream, laugh, jump out of their seats—and most importantly, have fun again.

We make movies. We love horror. And we’re here to make horror fun again.

A Note From The Director, Erick Kaslov

So what is my goal for Hillsborough Road?  Well, for people to just have fun.  So many movies today are trying to say something. And I wanted to go the other way; I wanted something easy to watch, something you could show someone who is not a big horror fan, and maybe win them over. 

Do we have over-the-top kills? Oh yeah, but nothing is mean-spirited. 

My main Inspirations for the movie were Amblin movies, Dazed and Confused, and the Friday the 13th franchise. I know those three things don't sound like they could be combined.
