Incomplete & unreleased films

About
Not every film makes it to the screen. Some are completed but quietly shelved, never reaching an audience. Others run into obstacles mid-production and are left unfinished. And sometimes, projects simply fade away without explanation. This gallery offers a glimpse into that hidden world—showcasing rare images from productions Nathan Head worked on that, for one reason or another, never saw the light of day.

Alien Stripper Vampires
In 2013 Nathan Head was asked to play the role of Warren Breeze in an ad-libbed feature film called Alien Stripper Vampires, it was filmed over the course of one day by Skrewball Productions on location at the infamous Silks stripclub in Leeds for American horror film distributor Chemical Burn Entertainment. With the footage from principal photography not being usable, and the project no longer taking the "grindhouse extreme" direction that the distributors initially intended, the production was abandoned pretty early on. Nothing survived of Alien Stripper Vampires aside from a handfull of early teaser posters and a few promotional photos of the lead stripper characters in wigs, leaving the cast and crew to part ways and move on to other projects.

Tearful Surrender
Tearful Surrender was originally a trilogy of surreal horror stories from Cassandra Sechler: The Return Of The Nacken, Chained, and The Homecoming. Each story is filled with intensity, despair, and murder using nature, sexuality, and violence as metaphor to represent the sadness of what it is to be a monster in this lonely world. Each story takes place in 1982, the year of the Jupiter Effect hysteria, with great emphasis on the unforgiving qualities of love, sex, and death, the mysteries of the occult, fantasies, and misery. Nathan Head was attached to star as Bernard in the The Return Of The Nacken segment, which would have featured Dream-Witches, Sea-Sirens as well an ancient water beast. Initial character test shots were done in Manchester throughout 2016 & 2017 followed by a cast table-read taking place in 2018, principal photography was due to commence in 2019 in Beddgelert, North Wales, but due to budgetary reasons the shoot was relocated to Oregon, North America, with an exciting new ensemble of cast took over the reigns. The film was completed in the States under the new title Return of the Nacken.
