About
...Last caress productions?
Last Caress Productions (LCP) is an independent production company built strategically over the years with the intent to be a purposeful part of the kindling that lights the independent filmmaking fire in and around Columbus, GA,south-southeastern, alongside other local production companies Strongland Creative, Philmwurks, Deathkiss Productions, and Mud Films.
Columbus, GA, is a 1 and 1/2 hour drive from the south-eastern film hub of Atlanta, GA, and boasts both accredited degree and certification programs from Columbus State University and the Georgia Film Academy as well as other surrounding institutions, such as Auburn University.
We are primed to become a major filmmaking hub.
In order to meet the goal, we need to consistently make films and therefore ensure a reliable flow of opportunities. It is our belief that a thriving low-budget scene will amplify the opportunities across all budget levels.

"A SOLID HORROR FILM TAKES TIME AND CARE TO DEVELOP THE CHARACTERS. WE NEED TO GET TO KNOW THEM. THEY NEED TO BURROW BEANEATH OUR SKIN. CONTRARY TO POPULAR BELIEF WE DON'T HAVE TO LIKE THEM, OR AGREE WITH ANYTHING THEY DO OR SAY, BUT WE DO NEED TO UNDERSTAND THEM AND ULTIMATELY WE'RE ON THIS EMOTIONAL JOURNEY TOGETHER - ONE WE'LL NEVER FORGET AND WANT TO SHARE."
