Awaken the Dead Synopsis and Stills
We’ve received the official synopsis and still photos from the new horror film Awaken the Dead from Silver Storm Productions and writer/director Jeff Brookshire. Awaken the Dead challenges the low budget horror stereotype with a larger than life story fit for the big screen but aiming for the small one. Writer/Director Jeff Brookshire pays homage to Sergio Leone, Ridley Scott and Stanley Kubrick with this espionage drama set in a world of the undead. A die hard supporter of indie film and indie music, Brookshire gives us some talented up and coming actors and showcases talented indie bands from across the world.
Brain Damage Films has picked up worldwide distribution
for the film with a release date to be set for later in 2007.
Official Synopsis:
Christopher is a professional killer on the government‘s payroll, until his conscience turns him away from his wet work and into a life in the priesthood. He turns his back on the violence and struggles for an elusive peace. He almost has it.
Until a mysterious red envelope pulls him back. Back to a safe house that becomes a deathtrap as a mysterious virus transforms the world around him into a nightmare of the living dead. Together with a feisty recluse named Mary and Stanley, a nervous Jehovah’s Witness, he must unravel the clues to this great conspiracy if he hopes to survive.
Sometimes the path to redemption leads through the gates of hell.
This apocalyptic tale also involves a massive pimp named Grin, two not so innocent Asian Schoolgirls, a retired ex-marine named Nick and his timid wife Michelle, an innocent bystander named Delilah , an omnipresent watcher in black and the omniscient Jeremiah.
Fate and human machinations tie them all together in a downward spiral of deception and violence. Violence that teaches the world to fear the wrath of a peaceful man.
Filled with action, laughter and more than its share of humanity, Awaken the Dead crosses genres to bring you a universal tale of horror and action. Awaken the Dead is also a redemption tale about two lost souls who are dead to the world until the demons without force them to confront the demons within.
