SCRANTON — A New York City independent movie company plans to film a thriller at local spots in October, offering opportunities both on camera and off.
Cardinal Flix will film “Arachnophilia” at several landmarks, including a multi-day shoot at Keystone College in La Plume Twp. and scenes at Lackawanna College.
Those interested in offering shooting locations, appearing as secondary actors, background actors or working on the production in other ways, can fill out a form on the social media accounts for “Arachnophilia Film.”
Two area natives with name-brand industry credits have key roles. Lackawanna Trail High School graduate Adam Spott is the assistant to the director, and Anthony Bruno, a West Scranton High School graduate, is the production designer.
They plan to spend $1.3 million in the region.
The film company and business community figures spoke at a press conference at the restaurant A’tera 519 on Tuesday.
