chupacabra

After a string of grisly livestock attacks in rural Texas, a Sheriff’s tenacious daughter is determined to find the monster responsible. 

Chupacabra is a short film by writer/director Nichole DeLaura. A female coming-of-age drama, it's the story of a girl facing the monsters of an adult world---but learning to do so with boldness and compassion. Inspired by the striking visuals of No Country For Old Men and the philosophical atmospherics of True Detective as well as the legacy of both the horror and Western genres, this film seeks to inspire the next generation of young women to embrace a faith in the wondrous and a concern for the hurting while rejecting fear, hatred, and anger.

Chupacabra was shot on location in Elgin, TX.
