Elite Films Production is proud to officially announce a new creative partnership with Redwood Motion Pictures for the production of the highly anticipated horror sequel, Slaughter Night 2.
As excitement continues to build following the success of the original Slaughter Night and its first major theatrical release, Elite Films Production is expanding its family of filmmakers while continuing to honor the talented teams that helped make the first film possible.
Longtime collaborators Black Rain Entertainment and Castillo Production remain an important part of the Slaughter Night franchise and the future of Elite Films Production. Their dedication, hard work, and continued support have helped establish the foundation that has allowed the company to grow and reach new audiences.
Now, Elite Films Production is thrilled to welcome Redwood Motion Pictures to the team.
Led by producer and actress Laura Dimmer, who portrayed Cassie in the original Slaughter Night, Redwood Motion Pictures brings a fresh creative vision and an expanding team of passionate filmmakers. Laura has become an increasingly important part of Elite Films Production's future, previously assisting with Thomas Sahagun's short film The Truth Kills and now stepping into a larger role behind the scenes for Slaughter Night 2.
"What makes independent filmmaking special is the people you surround yourself with," said founder and director Thomas Sahagun. "We're fortunate to continue working alongside Black Rain Entertainment and Castillo Production while welcoming Redwood Motion Pictures into the family. Bringing together both longtime collaborators and new creative voices is something we're incredibly excited about."
What began as a single film designed to showcase practical effects and demonstrate what independent filmmakers could accomplish quickly evolved into something much bigger. The response from audiences following the theatrical release of Slaughter Night surpassed expectations, creating a growing fanbase eager to see what happens next.
Originally, Slaughter Night was never intended to become a franchise. However, the overwhelming support from horror fans made it clear that the story was far from over.
With production set to begin at the end of July, Slaughter Night 2 is shaping up to be the largest and most ambitious project in Elite Films Production's history. The sequel promises to deliver bigger scares, expanded storytelling, and a continued commitment to practical effects that fans of the original film have come to appreciate.
The collaboration between Elite Films Production, Black Rain Entertainment, Castillo Production, and Redwood Motion Pictures represents more than just a partnership—it represents a shared passion for independent filmmaking and a commitment to creating unforgettable experiences for audiences everywhere.
Fans can expect more announcements in the coming weeks, including cast reveals, behind-the-scenes photos, production updates, and exclusive content as filming gets underway.
The next chapter is almost here.
Production on Slaughter Night 2 begins at the end of July 2026.
