Info
Director of Angry Productions, Tom Vogel, met the Dunnylane Productions
team when he was the lead role in the short horror film “Ivy”.
He proposed a collaboration between the two production houses which
“The Good Samaritan” was the end result of. Tom had the
idea from a joke someone told him. He turned this idea into a five
page script, shot it the next day with the help of the Dunnylane Productions
crew and it was edited the same night by the exceptional Marcela Olea.
Currently the two production companies are in talks with Happening
People who are interested in buying the rights to sell it to overseas
pay television stations.
