We are big, big fans of Brazilian vampire film Akai around here - so much so that we are hosting it for download - and have been eagerly tracking its creator, Carlos Gananian, since we first came across him. He's got himself US representation now and a fistful of offers on his table but he'd really rather tackle one of his own projects rather than doing a for hire job and he's just sent us a tease for what he's currently working on:
It's an ensemble prison drama with a supernatural twist. Very much a horror film, but with a metaphysical overtone. Hopefully it will deliver the scares, while also featuring some emotional beats and interesting character arcs.
I've been able to see a small handful of production sketches for this and they are truly stunning, atmospheric stuff - I'd expect nothing less from the man - but I've only got the okay to show you this one. Click the link below for a large version.
