About the film

Picture
Chase the Dragon is the nineteenth short production released by Wingless Films, and the first to be filmed in and around Bridgwater, Somerset. Created and directed by Jim Elton, it stars Tom Menary as a drug-taker who experiences a hallucinatory trip and finds himself becoming the victim of a dangerous addiction.

The interior scenes of Chase the Dragon were shot in Bridgwater, marking the first time a Wingless Films production was filmed in the hometown of Jim and Tom. The dream sequences were shot in both Bridgwater (the field) and outside the Quantocks (the forest). The field location had previously been used for the live-action Eternal Silence project Striker.

A rough edit of the film was completed on 11th September, 2011, and the finished film was released on the 20th, after composition of an original score by Tom Menary. The digital album release contains two theme demos as bonus tracks.
