Just
got word on an interesting sounding little ditty! The Action/Horror/Comedy
BLOOD SHOT started shooting last week in Los
Angeles. The flick is based on the award winning short film of the same title,
is written and directed by Dietrich Johnston and stars Brad Dourif, Lance Henriksen, Michael Bailey Smith, Brennan Elliott, Assaf Cohen, Martin Klebba, and Azita Ghanizada
(pictured right – yum). Here’s what it’s about:
In the
heart of the city, a nefarious terrorist cell is plotting a major attack against
the US. Little do the terrorists know, someone is on to them. As they prepare to
execute the first part of their plan, a mysterious figure (Smith) infiltrates
their home base and dispatches them one by one. This mysterious figure turns out
to be a vampire, but this isn’t just any vampire. This bloodsucker is employed
by a covert government organization whose sole mission is to protect America
from harmful threats.
Rip (Elliott), a rogue cop, knows of the vampire’s
existence and will stop at nothing to destroy it, even if his wife, job, and
sanity are at stake. After several violent encounters with the vampire, Rip is
beaten to a pulp, but like any good cop, he never gives up. The vampire attempts
to convince Rip that he is on the same side, but Rip isn’t interested in being
buddies. He just isn’t having it. Meanwhile, Bob (Dourif), the most notorious
terrorist in the world, is on his way to the US to execute the attack. Along
with him is a gang of motley terrorists hell bent on destroying the city. Upon
hearing the news, the vampire must convince Rip to join forces and stop Bob
before he detonates a powerful nuke in the middle of the city. Rip is reluctant
at first, but when Bob kidnaps his wife, he has no choice.
The movie is scheduled to wrap in early March, more news on it when we some!
