What started as a first date turned into something truly shocking!

Directed by Christopher Giroux (Dead All Night), a prominent producer in the independent horror film scene (Bite, Bed of the Dead, The Heretics and Let Her Out), comes Scraps. The film echoes the mid-90s VHS era of horror movie making; when films such as The Faculty, I Know What You Did Last Summer and Disturbing Behavior were released. A time when youth had secrets that lead to murderous outcomes.

Synopsis: After a successful date, Jessica (Emily Alatalo) and Billy (Jordan Gray) decide they don’t want the evening to end just yet, and agree to head back to Billy’s for a nightcap. On their walk they run into danger, but who really is the threat when the truth is revealed.

Christopher Giroux says, “My previous film, Dead All Night, was a tribute to 80’s action films, Scraps is my ode to the 90’s VHS era. When Jordan Gray first brought me the script I knew this was something we could turn into a fun, bloody romp filled with twists and turns!”

On top of releasing Scraps, Giroux is bringing his views on piracy to a new light by adding a tongue in cheek, VHS-inspired piracy warning attached the beginning of the film. Graphic artist/filmmaker Sean McLeod, Black Fawn Distribution sales manager C.F. Benner, 920 Films, and filmmaker Christopher Giroux teamed up to release this piracy warning to raise awareness within the indie community.

As this cause is so near and dear to their hearts, the team has not only released the piracy logo in front of Scraps, they have also made it available on the 920 Films Vimeo page, for any filmmaker to use licence-free; to encourage other filmmakers to join the fight against online piracy.
