In this episode of Invst Guru, host Jeff “Fuzzy” Wenzel sits down with filmmaker Marine Assaiante, producer of A Dream for Amy — a new female-led vampire horror feature film raising funds on Wefunder.
From indie film financing to horror distribution strategy, Marine shares how her team turned a chilling metaphor for narcissistic parenting into a gripping cinematic story — and how everyday investors can join the journey for as little as $100.

- How A Dream for Amy redefines the vampire genre with a strong female cast and creative direction
- The realities of independent film fundraising and ROI potential for small-budget horror movies
- Why horror is one of the most profitable genres for streaming and theatrical distribution
- The power of community-driven filmmaking through crowdfunding
- How A Dream for Amy plans to engage fans through film festivals, self-distribution, and Q&A events
👻 About the film:
A Dream for Amy follows a young woman’s desperate attempt to save her friend from a vampiric mother, blending psychological depth with gothic horror. Filmed in New York’s Beacon and Bronx neighborhoods, it’s a dark exploration of manipulation, control, and empowerment.
