The vampire stands as one of the most enduring horror creatures throughout history. The enduring appeal of vampires in horror films and popular culture stems from their embodiment of our fundamental fears and aspirations, which include immortality, seduction, and power, alongside their associated consequences. Vampires have remained endlessly reinventable across different eras and subgenres by adapting into gothic romance as well as urban thrillers and southern-fried carnage. Through their stories, vampires pull people into a dark reflection of human nature where civilized behavior and primal instincts exist only a heartbeat—or a fang—apart.
Bogieville marks a daring addition to vampire stories by fusing southern gothic atmosphere with grindhouse intensity. Sean Cronin directs Bogieville as a gritty journey through a deteriorating trailer park filled with vampires who bite rather than sparkle. Bogieville combines rising stars and veteran performers with practical effects and fresh vampire lore to redefine audience perceptions of vampires. Bogieville is now available; check out the press release below for more information.
The highly anticipated southern-fried vampire road movie “Bogieville”, directed by acclaimed British filmmaker and actor Sean Cronin, releases today, June 3, 2025, in North America by Level 33 Entertainment and on June 13, 2025 in the UK via Trinity Creative Partnership, on VOD via Amazon, Apple TV and Fandango at Home, among other premium digital channels.
Written by screenwriter Henry P. Gravelle, “Bogieville” unfolds in a decaying American trailer park where a young couple, Ham and Jody, are enticed to stay by the unsettling caretaker, Crawford. What they don’t realize is that Crawford is the guardian of the park’s grotesque residents – a clan of feral, hillbilly vampires. The film stars Indonesian actor Arifin Putra (“The Raid 2”), Eloise Lovell Anderson (“Villain”, “The Bastard Executioner”), and Cronin himself as the lead vampire, Madison.
The ensemble also features Jonathan Hansler, Ayvianna Snow (“How to Kill Monsters”, “Wrath of Dracula”), Sarina Taylor (“Reckless”), Andrew Lee Potts (“Primeval”, “The Crown”), along with newcomers Poppie Jae Hughe and Daniel P. Lewis. Sean Cronin—best known for his villainous turns in box office hits like “James Bond: The World is Not Enough”, “Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation”, and “Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them” – brings his signature intensity and cinematic flair to “Bogieville”.
The film is produced by Djonny Chen for Silent D Pictures and Cronin for Magnificent Films.
Practical special effects are provided by Tequila Carter, with Steve Askey handling VFX.
Andreas Olavarria, CEO of Level 33 Entertainment, said, “Bogieville is a wild new take on the vampire genre which, although being shot in Surrey, UK, imaginatively brings to life a trailer park in the American deep south.”
Says Cronin of the film, “Here’s a little something to stir the pot – is it taboo, or just plain vampire science that our bloodsuckers can sense when it’s a woman’s time of the month? Like sharks with fangs, but with better cheekbones.” Bogieville is now available on VOD! Check out Bogieville on the socials: Facebook & Instagram
