Vampire movie filming in Dundurn
People in Dundurn are hearing plenty of “lights, camera, action” after their town was chosen as the setting for a new vampire movie written, directed and produced out of Saskatoon.
Rufus is set in a fictitious mid-western town, and producer Anand Ramayya said director David Schultz visited many towns before choosing Dundurn.
“I think it really spoke to him and felt like it could be the small town where this vampire would try to find himself,” said Ramayya.
It was a good fit for other reasons including a tax incentive because the movie is filmed in a rural community 40 km outside of any major city. Unfortunately, filming in a rural community also costs more so the crew will likely break even.
