During the unprecedented uncertainty of the Great Pandemic, artists and musicians were presented with an extraordinary amount of time to create. It was then that Mark Palgy, composer (former VHS or Beta) and glitch artist known as De4thrace, decided it was time to make a short horror film, a longtime dream. With the help of his wife and an exceptional crew, a story was written, shot and completed.
Filmed over the course of 4 days, THE VISITOR shows the Kentucky countryside through the lens of old slasher and horror film grain. It’s a story of…finding yourself. “I am a bassist and film composer by trade, but when everything shut down and the work dried up, I decided I needed to finally shoot my own film, completely indie, in the heart of Kentucky,” says Palgy.
THE VISITOR is out October 29th on all platforms with a limited VHS cassette tape release available via Bandcamp.
