Serhat Caradee, (Cedar Boys,Hunters), will shoot the thriller Mark of Kane in Australia later this year.
Adapted from Michael Prescott’s novel, Kane, the project sounds like a grim descent into violence and horror – not that that’s a bad thing. Clock the synopsis:
“Kane is a force of nature. Walking out of the desert into the dying town of Tuskett, which only 23 people still call home, he has only one purpose: to kill every resident. Relentless, stealthy, and without mercy, Kane won’t stop until every last man, woman and child is nothing but a memory. Soon the surviving townspeople must band together to fight this seemingly-unstoppable evil, or die trying. Brutal, action-packed, and most importantly, character-driven, Mark of Kane is a thrilling story of survival at any cost.”
The film is a co-production between Canada’s Unstable Ground and Australian outfit Dicentium Films, while Serena Whitney and Justin McConnell have handled scripting duties. Genre veterans Adam Mason (Blood River, The Devil’s Chair, Broken), and George Mihalka (My Bloody Valentine, 24 Hour Rental) are on board as consulting producers.
No cast or further details have been announced as yet, but there is a striking concept poster:
