Posted

Pasta Bedtime Productions is proud to present the Rehoboth Film Festival, sponsored by the Rehoboth Cultural Council. The event will take place on October 19th, 2024, from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM outdoors at Francis Farm, located at 27 Francis Farm Road, Rehoboth, MA 02769. Four short horror films will be screened. Tickets are currently available for $8.00 through EventBrite.com at www.eventbrite.com and search “Rehoboth Film Festival” or scan this QR code.

All proceeds from the ticket sales will benefit the Rehoboth Senior Center.

In 2022, a group of talented writers and producers decided to form Pasta Bedtime Productions. The film industry has been struggling to recover from union strikes, so this group of experienced professionals decided to come together to make a project from the heart. This project is a short film about Rehoboth’s famous Red-Headed Ghost of Route 44. Written by Rosario Corso and Amelie Iselin, and directed by Cameron K. Morton, "44" is a chilling preview of the feature film currently in development by Pasta Bedtime Productions in partnership with Plan R Pictures.

During filming, it was necessary for the crew to film for two nights outdoors in the cold of November 2023. We thank the Rehoboth Police Department for their efforts to close the roads during this time and keep our crew’s safety in mind. In return, we promised to share the final product with our neighbors, culminating in what is sure to be a fantastic event. This project would not have been possible without the support of: Rehoboth Police Department, Live Earth Rentals, Selectman David Pereira, and June Cruz, chair of the Rehoboth Cultural Council.

In addition to "44," we will be screening three other short horror films - all featuring thrilling graphics. Please note that these films are not suitable for children, though anyone over the age of 17 is welcome.

The Film Festival would not be complete without all the food, fun and ambiance provided by our chosen sponsors and vendors. Please be sure to visit each one because a percentage of each vendor’s proceeds will be donated to the Senior Center.

Souza Farms is creating a perfect fall ambiance for the festival with cornstalks, pumpkins, mums and more.
