Directed by Simon Pearce and based on Simon R. Green's Ghost Finders series of novels (there are currently six entries in the series), the film JUDAS GHOST has already been available in the UK for a while now. It will finally be receiving a release in the US on December 1st, when Uncork'd Entertainment will be setting it loose on DVD and VOD.
Starring Martin Delaney, Lucy Cudden, Alexander Perkins, Simon Merrells, and Grahame Fox, JUDAS GHOST tells the following story:
The Carnacki Institute exists to do something about ghosts.
When reports of the supernatural from an old village hall point to an apparently standard haunting, an elite team of Ghost Finders is dispatched to assess the situation. The team of four includes a cameraman and former Ghost Finder from the Carnacki Institute, who is there to document events as a training tool for new recruits.
But things go from bad to worse when it becomes clear that they are facing something far more sinister than they first anticipated. The hall harbours a dark secret, and the team must use every trick they know to try and get out of there alive.
Three men and one woman who think they’ve seen it all. That is, until they encounter the chilling Judas Ghost…
Who will survive and what will be left of their souls?
Nice TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE reference in that last line.
I've never read any of the Ghost Finders novels, but the film's screenplay was written by Green, so I would expect it to be a good representation of what the series is all about. None of the books are called Judas Ghost, though.
The trailer and cover art for JUDAS GHOST are presented below. Will you be watching the movie one week from today?
