Horror movie extras scam

IN a bizarre twist on the classic gory film genre, police in the Highlands have issued a warning about a scam which attempts to recruit extras for a horror film which does not exist.

People were asked for £60 to work on Wood Evil which, it was claimed, would be filmed near Fort Augustus.

Northern Constabulary and the Highland Film Commission said they had no record of any such project.
