Halloweenight, the latest creation from Polonia Brothers Entertainment, marks the first movie done by the company without the help of John Polonia, the twin brother and other half of Pbe who passed away suddenly in February of 2008. Based on a story and a concept for a feature film John had written years earlier, Mark Polonia takes on the job of bringing his late brother’s old story to life with the help of a cast of old Polonia Bros. movie regulars (like Todd Carpenter, Cindy Wheeler, Bob Dennis, Dave Fife, Ken VanSant, etc.) and with the monster and gore making prestige of make-up effects artist Brett Piper (Screaming Dead, Bacterium, etc.).

Longtime indie fright filmmaker Mark Polonia is self-distributing Halloweenight, the latest Polonia Bros. Entertainment production, on DVD beginning today under the Cinegraphic Productions banner. It’s the first feature he has made since the untimely death of his brother/moviemaking partner John in February 2008, and is also the final movie of their frequent collaborator Mark Satterly.
Written and directed by Mark from John’s story, Halloweenight is about a put-upon college student who constructs a living scarecrow that he uses to take revenge on his enemies during an All Hallow’s party. “Halloweenight is the culmination of many talented people putting forth their best efforts to make this film as good as can possibly be,” Mark says. “It was produced, first and foremost, to honor the memory of John Polonia, who tragically passed away as preproduction began. Sadly, after the movie was finished, the producer, Matt Satterly, also passed away.
