Cinco follows five friends who become trapped in an abandoned nightclub and are attacked by sugar skull ghosts.

We have received some comments letting us know that we confused Cinco de Mayo with Día de Muertos, the day of the dead and to some, this is considered offensive. It was never our intention to offend anyone, we were just looking to blend to two holidays together for a fun, short film.

This short film was the fifth and final short film released as part of 12 Months of Terror, which was never completed.

Fun Fact #1 This short film was originally written to contain all Spanish actors, speaking only Spanish with English subtitles.

Fun Fact #2 The sugar skull ghosts were originally a demon.

Fun Fact #3 The first draft of the shooting script only featured one ghost.

Fun Fact #4 Cinco was filmed at an actual bar, Tandy's in Concord, NH.

Fun Fact #5 There are actually 5 sugar skull ghosts, but only 2 are shown. Each one of them female and representing different traits of the female personality. The 2 personalities shown were sensualism and violence.

Fun Fact #6 Hilary and Annie are actually sisters in real life.

Fun Fact #7 Ashley Younger was meant to be the final girl, but couldn't return to finish filming, so was killed off first.

Fun Fact #8 The names of all the characters are based off of Joshua's Mother's siblings' names.

Fun Fact #9 Cinco was rereleased to remove copyrighted music and to make updated edits.
