S lice Pictures, LLC is an independent production company located in Richmond, Virginia. We believe that small, indie films have a valid place in today's entertainment lexicon. It's obviously fashionable to throw the phrase around these days, but exactly what is an independent film?
"An independent film (or indie film) is a film initially produced without financing or distribution from a major movie studio. Creative, business, and technological reasons have all contributed to the growth of the indie film scene in the late 20th and early 21st century." (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.)
You'll find as many definitions as you will opinions (and you know what they say about those). That said, we're as indie as it gets. We've got a great story, a team of talented professionals, and if we shoot locally, even a location.

While some diehard fans may argue that the genre hasn't gone anywhere, horror films have made a strong "comeback" recently. This latest success bolsters our belief that new generations of horror fans are created every day.
Slice Pictures plans to take advantage of this.
It's not our intention to just produce another "slasher" film. We're filmmakers and horror fans. SLICE involves very real elements of friendship, trust, sacrifice, forgiveness and revenge blended with an exhilarating action-packed plot. We believe this will have a positive reaction on audiences.
We propose to make SLICE in or near Richmond, Virginia, to exploit economical production costs and longstanding industry relationships. This will allow us to make this picture for the modest budget of $800,000. This being said, as independent filmmakers we realize everything is of course negotiable.
Slice Pictures is committed to creating a quality, entertaining and profitable picture. We wouldn't dedicate the time and energy into this undertaking if we weren't confident we could deliver a thrilling film that not only entertains, but also remains faithful to, the horror genre. (That's right, lots of blood and guts.)
Q: What's "SLICE" all about?
"Slice" tells the story of four good friends playing in the "Wide Open," a wild, after dark, golf tournament. The foursome (and their girlfriend "caddies") reunites in the woods of Virginia at Woody Hole Golf Club, which just so happens to be reopening just in time to host their annual golf outing. But like all good friends, they've had their share of drama.
Q: So ... what happens next?
When a stranger stumbles onto the remote course and into their lives, chaos explodes. Soon, these friends are plunged into a horrifying struggle with hideous creatures determined to destroy them.
Q: Where are these things coming from?
Woody Hole was built in the midst of a forgotten and seemingly innocuous cemetery. Disturbed during renovation, the ground unleashes something dark and deadly. Stimulated by the golfers nearby, uninvited guests crash the night tournament with increased vigor.
Q: Hey, I like golf too ... but why don't they just bolt?
The other teams have vanished. The golfers find themselves surrounded and cut off from their cars; their cell phones now useless (of course) due to the remoteness of the course. They panic and scramble into the woods. Their only hope of survival is mired in their ability to forget their differences of the past, join forces and fight.
Now bloodied, separated and lost ... and armed only with golf clubs,
what chance do they have?
