Ozzie Horror Feature The Tunnel to Show on Bit Torrents

Carlo Ledesma is marketing and financing his film in a very unique way. The budget is being supplemented by selling each frame of his film The Tunnel for a dollar and with 135K frames that is a lot of dollars for an Ozzie shot horror film. As well, Ledesma will release his film not on DVD or Video-on-demand, but through Bit Torrents, which are notorious for movie piracy.

The film itself follows an investigative journalist into the tunnels under Sydney's St James Train Station where available water is suspiciously left unused. Expecting a government cover-up these two correspondents find something much more deadly instead (The Tunnel). Visit the film's website below for more details on the film's marketing and financing strategies along with a teaser trailer for The Tunnel inside.

The full synopsis for The Tunnelhere:

"In 2007 the New South Wales government suddenly scrapped a plan to utilize the water in the disused underground train tunnels beneath Sydney's St James Train Station.

In 2008, chasing rumours of a government coverup and urban legends surrounding the sudden backflip, investigative journalist Natasha Warner led a crew of four into the underground labyrinth. They went down into the tunnels looking for a story – until the story found them.
