Directed by Michael DiBiasio-Ornelas, this entirely Vermont-made feature has already made waves, winning best feature at the 2024 Underground Horror Film and Screenplay Festival, and screening at the 2024 Made Here Festival, the 2024 Big Apple Film Festival, and the inaugural Vermont Film and Folklore Festival. Equal parts campy and thrilling, The Yorkie Werewolf flips the werewolf mythos on its head and delivers a comedic bite to audiences everywhere.
In a span of two days, teen witch Jenny buries both matriarchs of her family, her powerful grandmother and her mother Sandra, who has long been hiding a secret about Jenny’s birth. Matters are made worse when Jenny is turned into a tiny Yorkie werewolf, and drawn into a bloody war between her town’s creatures of the night and the local mafia—as headed by her own warlock/mobster father, Papa Nick. After joining forces with clingy and bumbling vampire Chris (with his own vendetta against the mob), Jenny embarks on a reluctant quest to fulfill her destiny as the one who will finally bring peace to her community—through various hijinx and much bloodshed!
