Eighty-three-year-old, two-time Oscar winner Bruce Dern takes on a Satanic cult in director Justin Lee's action horror film HELLBLAZERS, which recently wrapped production in California. To celebrate the end of filming, Benetone Films has released a first look image of Dern in character, seen above.
Dern is joined in the cast by a bunch of genre icons and regulars: Tony Todd, Adrienne Barbeau, Courtney Gains, John Kassir, Meg Foster, and Billy Zane.
HELLBLAZERS is set in the late 1980s and tells the story of
a Satanic cult that has the singular focus of unleashing hell on Earth. With the help of an ancient incantation, they conjure a demon, and its members are tasked with feeding it the populous of a nearby small southwestern town.
This one is coming to us from Benetone Films, Legion XIII, TB FILMS, and Origo Financial Services. Lee produced the movie with Daemon Hillin and Melanie Young. Vasily Bernhardt, Avi Haas, and Frank Salzano are the executive producers.
Watching that cast go up against a demon-summoning Satanic cult sounds like a lot of fun to me, I'll be watching for more news on HELLBLAZERS as it moves forward.
