Owensboro filmmaker PJ Starks is producing “Sweet Meats,” a new horror movie that will be filmed in Kentucky.

The film is about Bobby Sweet, a country music legend who has been the world-renowned face of “Sweet Meats” since establishing his first restaurant with his wife in 1978. But how has his restaurant taken off so quickly and what makes the meat sweet?

The horror comedy musical is being produced in association with TROMA. The film is being shot in Kentucky and Ohio — mostly at Bobby Mackey’s, which is the haunted bar that’s been featured on Travel Channel’s “Ghost Adventures.” The writer and director, Ricky Glore, is a Kentucky filmmaker. 

The film is produced by Starks (“New Fears Eve”), Chris Morris (“All Your Friends Are Dead”), and Mike Flinchum (“Hell’s Gate”).

The “Sweet Meats” cast features Timmy Barron (“Chicago Fire”), Eileen Earnest (“All Your Friends Are Dead”), Andrew Gordon (“The Forest Hills” and “Amityville Karen”), Amanda Chilelli (“Playboy Playmate”) and Ricky Glore (“All Your Friends Are Dead” and “Dry Bar Comedy”).
