In a bold new take on the vampire genre, Sean Cronin’s latest film Bogieville is set to make its market debut at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival, running from May 14-25, 2024. The film’s first look party is scheduled for May 16th at the Fantastic Pavilion, promising an engaging showcase.

Directed and starred in by Cronin, a seasoned actor known for his villainous roles in numerous box office successes, Bogieville is a narrative-rich horror film that combines the thrill of the chase with the intrigue of vampire lore. The screenplay, penned by Henry P. Gravelle, captures the eerie essence of a deserted American trailer park, Bogieville, where the main characters, Ham and Jody, encounter a nest of vampires under the watchful eye of the sinister caretaker, Crawford.
