The
Making of
Launched as a crowd-funding project, the Australian Indie-Studio Black Forest Films began their so far most ambitious project with their "The Viper's Hex". Inspired by the Yōkai story of Kiyo-hime and a love for Japanese horror, they decided to shoot the complete film in Japan with mostly Japanese actors. The result is an interesting Western perspective on J-horror and Japanese folklore, which is reflected in a modern revenge drama.
