Richard Elfman needs your help to make ‘FORBIDDEN ZONE 2’

Richard Elfman, brother of composer Danny Elfman, is making the rounds again to get Forbidden Zone 2 off the ground and into production. The first time I saw the film was on DVD and I couldn’t believe how crazy & inventive it was for the time it was made. While I’m not sure if the film really needs a sequel, if the creator wants one, why not help?

You might remember a piece that was used in promotion for the sequel from Syfy’s special effects show Monster Man with SOTA FX. I’ll include that video as well even though I don’t think it is a great representation for the sequel nor do I know if it is current since that video was from 2011 – including an end title card of “Coming in 2012”. Also, in the IndieGoGo campaign the overall look of Princess Polly is different. Richard is looking to direct Forbidden Zone 2 again and Danny Elfman will be composing some of the score. Check out their IndieGoGo page to donate. They are a third of the way through their 100,000 goal. However, Richard states that they ultimately need to raise over a million dollars to film this zany sequel but it sounds like if they get 100,000, the ball will roll.

Here’s the IndieGoGo campaign video
