Shoestring TV Presents:

Darkness of Red — Pilot: “The Butcher’s Bell”

In Whittle’s End, three tolls of the butcher’s bell mean death is near. Tonight, it rings four.

A grieving mother’s desperate bargain summons an otherworldly gunman to find the son stolen from her ten years ago. Known only as the Darkness of Red, he rides into a town where faith offers little shelter and familiar faces conceal terrible secrets.

But Red Country remembers its debts—and even the rider everyone fears has a past that can find him.

A gothic western from Shoestring TV.
