Thank you to Buck & Johnny's for your support and letting us film this scene from The Fois: Revenge of Maw Maw Claudette. Buck and Johnny's is a top notch establishment in Breaux Bridge with delicious food and their famous zydeco brunch on Saturdays. Our bartender Alyha Noel plays a couple roles in the movie, but she also works there in real life!

The background music is by Travis Matte "Thinking and Drinking"

In this snippet from the upcoming feature film The Fois, you'll see struggling helicopter pilot Beaux Boudreaux (played by Nick Manning) discover that he has inherited his paw paw's camp and must leave Shreveport to return to his childhood home down south on the bayou. Magnum Poo Yie was played by some rando off the street.

🎬 The Fois: Revenge of Maw Maw Claudette

Logline:
When a washed-up pilot returns home to the bayou to settle his grandfather’s estate, he accidentally unleashes the vengeful spirit of his Maw Maw Claudette—a gumbo champion whose cursed pot spreads a deadly supernatural outbreak known only as the fois.

About the Film:
The Fois is a locally produced Louisiana feature film — a micro-budget passion project made by South Louisiana filmmakers celebrating Cajun culture, humor, and horror. Shot around Lafayette and Henderson, the film blends bayou folklore, absurd comedy, and real Louisiana charm into one wild, home-grown horror-comedy experience.

Caught a matinee of Obsession yesterday and the theater was packed. Even some sitting on the first row. Almost all young people too. That's a good sign and just proves people still want to go to the movies, just not sh*tty ones. Pause.....uh oh 😬😖
