100 Bloody Acres directors prepare for a Scare Campaign

Last Updated on July 22, 2021

The twisted minds behind the fantastic 100 BLOODY ACRES, Colin and Cameron Cairnes, have finally begun work on their next feature film with SCARE CAMPAIGN, which has just unveiled its key cast as production begins this week in Victoria, Australia. Meegan Warner (Turn, The Veil), Olivia DeJonge (Hiding, The Visit), and Ian Meadows (The Moodys, The Pacific) have all been cast in major roles for SCARE CAMPAIGN, with Sigrid Thornton (Sea Change), Cassandra McGrath (Wolf Creek), and John Brumpton (The Loved Ones) co-starring.

For producer Julie Ryan, SCARE CAMPAIGN marks her second feature with the Cairnes brothers after 100 BLOODY ACRES. “I’m very excited to be making another film with the Cairnes brothers, and fans of 100 Bloody Acres are not going to be disappointed. The brothers are original storytellers, and this one has scares aplenty with a number of twists to keep people guessing,” says Ryan.

Here's what this one is about:

SCARE CAMPAIGN charts the increasingly extreme attempts of a horror-themed TV “prank” show to stay one step ahead of its nihilistic online rivals.

“The film will be packed with jolting scares and suspenseful set pieces,” says Cairnes. Aptly, shooting commences this week at the Mayday Hills Village previously known as the Beechworth Lunatic Asylum in Victoria. “Our script screamed out for a location steeped in history and dripping with atmosphere,” continues Cairnes. “Beechworth Ghost Tours, who operate nightly explorations of the asylum, have been especially helpful in showing us the spookiest corners of Mayday Hills.”

100 BLOODY ACRES is a hilarious, blood-soaked film rooted in an original idea with unforgettable characters dishing out plenty of the red stuff, so hopefully the Cairnes brothers can capture that same level of fun and horror with SCARE CAMPAIGN. More on this one as we get it!
