Unfinished

Night Fall aka Escape From Sector six is one of the few productions Nathan Head worked on that wasn't originally completed, either due to post-production hiccups, money issues, lack of distribution deals, cast-pullouts during reshoots or simply scheduling conflicts, details on other incomplete films that Nathan Head shot are available via the below link.

Night Fall: the series

Not too long ago, a meteorite crashed to Earth bringing an alien virus that caused many to mutate into frenzied, windy creatures. Due to the degrading optic nerves and colon muscles in the infected it is now unsafe to be outside during daylight hours, as that is when the farting ghouls wander the woods. This production originally started out in 2014 as a serious Science-Fiction feature film to follow on from the success Nathan Head's previous self-produced feature, Apparition Of Evil, initial scenes began shooting on location in the Cheshire-West countryside as well as The Warehouse Studios near the city of Manchester, however numerous incomplete scenes and canceled shoots began to compromise the script, forcing the production to be shelved in August 2015. The rough-cut was picked up six years later, during the Covid-19 pandemic, under the working title 'Escape From Sector Six'. The intention was to fit the story more into the zombie/apocalypse genre of horror, however, the realisation that there simply weren't enough complete scenes to fill out a full feature-length story resulted in the film being shelved, yet again. In the early months of 2023, all salvageable material was edited around newly-shot scenes to create the first episode of a series, with the story now migrated more into the comedy realm.

Doctor Swift-Tuttle's name references the comet 109P/Swift-Tuttle which orbits the sun every 133 years. Captain Wormwood's name references a prophecised star, first mentioned in the New Testament's Book Of Revelation, that is said to fall to Earth in the End-Times, poisoning a third of the Earth's water supply.
