GEHENNA – Call for Cast & Crew

GEHENNA

A film by Andy Remic

Synopsis

Shotgun Jimmy is a nasty piece of work. Ripping off drug dealers, killing policemen, he’d decapitate his own grandmother for a sack full of loot. Schizophrenic, psychopathic, his only friend is Mr Shotgun – his trusty, reliable pump-action. But during a violent road-rage incident, something goes horribly wrong and Jimmy finds himself chained in shackles in a dark, grimy dungeon where he ponders over his deeply buried secret shame…

Tomas Sorescu’s been a bad man. He likes his whiskey. And brandy. Vodka, rum or gin? Shit, he’ll drink petrol if it isn’t nailed down. Only now he’s done a rather silly thing. He’s crashed his car – and killed his wife and little girl in the process. Tomas feels pretty bad about the situation. So bad, in fact, he needs a drink. But not as bad as the tall, powerful, gas-mask wearing figure who pulls Tomas from the wreckage and introduces him to a special place…

Sophie Scott is a successful career journalist in the sleepy village of Ramsbottom. Happy and confident, she now hides a secret… Four weeks earlier, she killed her husband. Stabbed him in the guts and buried his body in the woods. Now, his restless spirit haunts her, and she hears his mockery at every street corner. Sophie starts to believe she’s going mad. Then, whilst following up a murder story in Ramsbottom Park, she visits an old witch called Alice – and within minutes, meets the gas-masked figure known as Chemical Man. Meets him, and ends up in the boot of his car…

All three characters awake, chained and shackled in a cellar dungeon. At first they squabble like children, but soon realise their abductor is far from sane. However, Chemical Man doesn’t want to kill them. Not yet. First he wants to purify them… and that promises to be a lot more painful…

GEHENNA is a dark, brooding, powerful feature film in the tradition of SAW, HOSTEL and SHALLOW GRAVE from novelist and debut filmmaker ANDY REMIC.

Just remember. Don’t go on the moors alone tonight…

Because Chemical Man is out there. And he’s making new friends.

Welcome to the world of CHEMICAL MAN.

Welcome to GEHENNA.
