A group of deserting soldiers discover something ancient and monstrous hidden in the woods – something older than war itself.

Set deep in the haunted forests of war-torn Europe, Black Goat is a feature horror film that blends WWII grit with folk horror mythos.

Drawing from real military history, supernatural terror, and practical effects-driven horror, Black Goat is both intimate and terrifying – and made by an experienced indie team determined to deliver cinematic quality on a shoestring.

Deadbolt Films are seeking £5,000 to fund their development stage. They say: This campaign ensures we start strong – with historical integrity, location-ready planning, and a compelling visual pitch deck and FX reel to attract production partners.

Backing this means you’re helping us:

Create something that feels real, lived-in, and terrifying

Work sustainably with real-world tools

Build toward a final film with real weight and vision

We’re not just making a horror short. We’re building a legend.
