British born actor Mem Ferda has signed on to appear in and produce ‘Slasher House’ director MJ Dixon’s new horror film, ‘Legacy of Thorn.’ Ferda joins fellow actors Jade Wallis, Johnnie Russell, Craig Canning, Jane Haslehurst and Aaron Jeffcoate in the movie, for which Dixon also wrote the screenplay.
‘Legacy of Thorn’s production company, Mycho Entertainment Group, has released the following synopsis for the film:
‘Legacy of Thorn’ is the story of Jess, a beautiful, popular high school cheerleader who has everything going for her when the day of her 16th birthday comes around. However, things take a turn for the worst when an urban legend becomes her terrifying and bloody reality, as she is hunted down by the masked killer, known only as Thorn.
Four years on, she and a band of survivors plan to stop Thorn once and for all. As the shocking secrets are revealed as to why Jess is Thorn’s target and what he wants with her, will Jess be able to overcome the monster once and for all?
Ferda praised the writer-director’s work, saying Dixon’s “talent for the horror genre is undeniable. Having watched his remarkable feature ‘Slasher House,’ it is crystal clear to me that he has tapped straight into the vein of mainstream horror and is on a direct path to becoming the next Craven, Carpenter or Cronenberg.”
