Kristina Klebe, Joe Swanberg and more join Zack Parker’s suspense thriller Proxy

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

SCALENE director Zack Parker has rounded up the cast for his next film, PROXY, which is a “European-style suspense-thriller that promises to challenge the traditional cinematic
form.” No small goal there!

PROXY is set to star a trio of lovelies: Alexia Rasmussen
(OUR IDIOT BROTHER), Alexa Havins (TORCHWOOD) Kristina Klebe (pictured right; Rob Zombie’s HALLOWEEN). Meanwhile, indie thesp Joe Swanberg (V/H/S, A HORRIBLE WAY TO DIE) brings the man-action.

The plot: A very pregnant Esther Woodhouse (Rasmussen) is walking home after her latest OB
appointment, when she is brutally attacked and disfigured by a hooded assailant. When Esther
seeks consolation in a support group, she finds friendship and empathy in Melanie (Havins),
another mother scarred with tragedy. Esther soon begins to believe that the horrific event
might be a bittersweet act of fate. However, friendship and empathy can be very dangerous
things when accepted by the wrong people.

Make-Up artist James Ojala (TRUE BLOOD, HELLBOY II, LADY IN THE WATER, X-MEN:
LAST STAND) will lend a hand in the F/X department, while The Newton Brothers (SCALENE, DETACHMENT, with score
contributions to BABEL, DA VINCI CODE) will compose the score.

PROXY is set to begin production mid-July on location in Eastern Indiana.
