Get Your Head In The Game
Directed by Richard Jackson.
Resurrected as an urban legend in the dark corners of the internet; The Jupiter P55 is a Soviet-era mainframe computer at the heart of a mysterious lab fire that killed its creators. When a provincial computer museum gets permission to display the machine it is under only one condition; it must be guarded 24/7. Andy, the museum's curator, cuts a few corners by hiring the hapless Doug from a Gumtree ad and leaves him alone with the machine. What should have been easy money for Doug becomes more complicated as the long-dormant machine seems to come to life at night...
Type Till You Bleed is a comedy horror short that homages Italian horror and the British anthology stories of Amicus, Hammer and the comic 2000AD. Made in the rich tradition of DIY horror filmmaking and from first time writer/director, Richard Jackson, Type Till You Bleed was shot on location at the Centre for Computing History in Cambridge over just two days, with two actors, four crew members and a budget of £1200.
