Looking for some geek-friendly crowdfunding projects to support? Then here's a selection of worthy things for your consideration...
Nb: The pitch video for Why Horror contains some gory scenes which some bosses might describe as Not Safe For Work. Just thought we'd let you know.
We may have overshot Halloween by 24 hours, but that hasn't stopped us including a couple of horror-themed projects in this week's crowdfunding selection. And on the topic of horror, there's still just about time (if you've read this early enough on a Friday) to get involved in director Stuart Gordon's Nevermore Kickstarter campaign.
A low-budget film which will see Gordon reunite with the great Jeffrey Combs for an adaptation of Edgar Allan Poe's immortal poem, Nevermore still has a way to go before it hits its $375,000 goal - but if there's a last-minute swell of support, Nevermore...
