A feature film written by a Queensland first time writer, Peter Dai Evans has received the greenlight to go into production.
Dark Horizons says, the film will be produced and directed by veteran Phil Avalon one of Australia’s most successful feature film producers.
Dark Island is a teen thriller set on and island with strong voodoo overtones. It was was selected and developed by Avalon and the PFTC through an initiative for Qld writers.
Dark Island tells of Carey Meyer, the manager of ‘Digital Rage’ - a hot, up and coming computer Games Company. But their last game flopped, competition is fierce…..the company is in a precarious situation.
Her brother Dan, a partner in the company, wants Digital Rage to develop a new game, a survival horror. He wants to tap into the new consoles just released by Sony and Microsoft and create the game with unprecedented levels of realism. Dan has found a location to base the game around – a remote tropical island off Papua New Guinea, a place steeped in ancient voodoo, a place with a strange ceremony ground - a place with a legend. It seems Dan’s got the answer to the next best thing.
But when Carey and the game design crew join Dan on the remote island they discover they are not alone. One by one the crew slowly fall victim to unfathomable evil.
Following 12 months intensive work on the script and many re-writes the script was completed and ready to finance. |
