Darkside Films LLC
Darkside Films LLC is an independent film company specializing in the horror genre. Founded in 2001, Darkside Films first production was a 30 minute, award winning short film entitled Dead Soul: A Fairy Tale. The company has since gone on to produce further short films as well as music videos, documentaries and feature films.

D.W. Kann
Company founder D.W. Kann has successfully directed, produced and sold two feature films: Ancient Evil 2 and Prison of the Psychotic Damned, both of which he also edited. The films were sold to Silver Nitrate Entertainment and York Home Entertainment less than nine months after their initial principal photography start date.

Kann has been working in the film industry for nearly 20 years in which time he worked up the ranks of the industry starting as a prop master, make-up artist, art director, production designer, before moving on to editor, producer and director. He appears at numerous festivals and conventions every year to promote his work and has a growing fan base among horror fans.

In 2007 Kann worked with Ironopolis Media/Night Creature Films in England to produce and edit two feature films that played theatrically in the UK for several weeks and were shown at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival.

Kann is on the board of directors for the first annual Bram Stoker International Film Festival located in Whitby, England planned for October 2009. A roster has already begun to fill of both American and British horror icons planning on attending this first year of the festival.
