BonFire – Burn Your Demons

Four friends allure a mysterious outsider to partake in their dicey tradition.

BonFire was born from a project that one day we hope will manifest.  A crucial scene where a monstrous fire towers over the main character –  His face radiant by the flames.   We were hell bent on getting this shot.  A fair amount of pondering proceeded…To shoot this, we would have to sacrifice some precious time and of course sell it to the wives; knowing a yard pass would be required.  So why not make it worth our while and turn it into a Short Film?  Done deal, case closed.  Ok, do we have a story idea?  How about some close friends light a yearly Bonfire in the middle of the woods?  Easy enough and fund friendly.  Love it.  Throw in some turmoil and the rest is history.
