ROUGAROU
Supernatural Horror | Werewolf | Folklore Thriller

Logline:
After a pastor and his son are cursed by a vengeful voodoo priestess in the Louisiana swamps, they must suppress their transformation into the legendary Rougarou—an unstoppable werewolf-like beast—by following strict supernatural rules. Decades later, an investigative documentary crew digs into the town’s bloody past, unknowingly provoking the return of the curse.

Genre & Tone:

Supernatural horror with deep folklore roots
Atmospheric, Southern Gothic meets investigative thriller
Gritty, violent, and tension-driven werewolf horror

Key Selling Points:

Fresh Take on Werewolves: The Rougarou legend is a unique, underexplored creature in horror cinema, blending lycanthropy with voodoo and Southern folklore.
Dual-Timeline Narrative: Intercuts between the 1995 origin of the curse and a modern-day investigation, keeping suspense high.
Visceral Horror & Practical FX Potential: Werewolf transformations, brutal kills, and eerie psychological hauntings make it a showcase for horror effects.
Strong Character Arcs: A father and son battling inner demons and an external supernatural force, paralleled by skeptical investigators uncovering the truth.
Market Appeal: Fits alongside prestige horror films (The Witch, It Follows), cult werewolf classics (Dog Soldiers, Ginger Snaps), and investigative horror (Grave Encounters, The Last Exorcism).

Budget Considerations:

Mid-Budget Horror ($5M–$15M range)
Single-location horror set pieces keep costs manageable
Practical effects-driven werewolf transformations possible with modern VFX enhancements

Target Audience:

Fans of folklore horror, supernatural thrillers, and werewolf mythology
Horror festival circuits (Fantastic Fest, Beyond Fest, TIFF Midnight Madness)
Streaming platforms (Shudder, Netflix Horror Originals, Hulu Horror)

Status:

Genre & Tone:

A mix of Hereditary, The Ring, and True Detective (Season 1)
Eerie, cerebral horror with supernatural and existential dread

Key Selling Points:

Logline:

Tiretool and his gang of foul-mouthed degenerates accidentally unleash an ancient evil when a cursed set of dice binds them to a forgotten blood pact.

Meta-Humor & Genre Twists: Plays with horror tropes, fourth-wall-breaking moments, and satirical takes on demonic lore.
