Production



'Beverly Lane' was financed entirely by director Joshua Hull and producer/co-star Jim Dougherty. The film was shot in four days, and they needed to shoot 20 pages a day in order to stay on schedule. Jim O'Rear heard about the film and joined about a month prior to filming. The film was originally envisioned as a web series, but they decided that the story was better suited to a feature film. The first day of filming was March 13, 2010, and it included use of local Indiana locations, such as a scrap yard.

Release



On October 29, 2010, 'Beverly Lane' premiered in Noblesville, Indiana. It included a costume contest and prizes. It was released on DVD October 25, 2011. It also played at Gen Con in 2011.

Reception



Mark L. Miller of Ain't It Cool News wrote, "I must admit some of the deliveries are amateurish, but as I said above this film has a fun spirit, keeps things darkly humorous throughout, and is actually a lot of fun to watch as long as you aren't expecting an Oscar-winning film."

Awards

'Beverly Lane' won Best Horror Film at the GIF Festival and five Golden Cob awards, including Best Emerging Filmmaker for Hull.
