CASTING CALL
 
El Murcielago is a short horror film based on W.W. Jacobs classic short story, "The Monkey's Paw." The film follows a cursed mummified bat from the black-magic rich area of Catemaco, Mexico, north of the border to El Paso, Texas.
 
The bat has the ability to grant the wishes of anyone who possesses it, but with each wish, there are terrible consequences. Is there money involved? Of course. Death? You know it. A re-animated corpse? They can't give away all the fun.
