Biography

During the 1970s he directed several low budget horror films, such as Don't Look in the Basement. In 2001, a reviewer for the Michigan Daily called Poor White Trash 2 "the worst movie of all time." Other commentators value Brownrigg's work for his ability to create thrills with a minuscule budget.

Adaptations

  • In May 2008, it was announced that a remake of 'Don't Look in the Basement' was being planned by directors Alan Rowe Kelly and Anthony G. Sumner. Filming was scheduled for October 2008 in Indiana with a planned 2009 release. However, this film never came into fruition.
  • In December 2013, a sequel titled 'Id: Don't Look in the Basement 2' was announced with Anthony Brownrigg, son of S.F. Brownrigg, directing. The film was shot in Texas in March/April 2014 and used several of the same locations from the original film. A trailer debuted in early May 2014 with a promised release in the fall of 2014.
  • Director Todd Nunes's film Death Ward 13 (2017) is inspired by S.F. Brownrigg's movie The Forgotten and Edgar Allan Poe's The System of Doctor Tarr and Professor Fether.
