How to be an extra in horror film being shot 'in middle of nowhere'

Horror film fans have now got a chance to be an extra in a Cabin in the Woods style movie being shot "in the middle of nowhere".

Bad Blood films are looking for people to take part in a two-night shoot this weekend in both the Forest of Dean and the Cotswolds for a new film called Sacrilege.

In particular, they need between 30 and 40 extras to play scary, torch carrying villagers in the final crowd scenes to be filmed tonight and Saturday night.

Friday night (May 17) will be in the woods near Yorkley with volunteers playing torch carrying villagers, some wearing masks, surrounding a van, reports Gloucestershire Live.

On Saturday night (May 18) they will be filming a ritual festival scene in woodlands near Wotton-under-Edge.

“It’s  a supernatural horror,” said producer Mark Kenna.

“We have been filming at night but now we need some volunteers to play villagers. They should be prepared to film in the middle of nowhere and have strong nerves.  Think Cabin in the Woods.”

He added he is hoping to sell the film to a company such as Netflix after shooting finishes on May 26.

Although they can’t pay they have said they will lay on refreshments during the long night shoot in the Forest of Dean and Wotton-under-Edge.

The 30-40 villagers will be needed to cover both nights from 8pm to 4am, but you can choose just one night.

Extras need to be over 18 and wear their own clothes which should be warm, neutral, natural and comfortable.
