Pretty much everything Ron Perlman touches is gold in some way, shape, or form (in my useless opinion, anyway), from his big budget flicks to his more ‘independent’ films, and everything in between, the guy knows how to perform. Which makes me fairly excited for his new STD flick KILLER BY NATURE (not cause I hate ya!).
Perlman stars opposite the great Armand Assante in the film that deals with copycat killing, death row inmates, and dreams. Yes, dreams. And no, Freddy does not show up in this one. But if you must know (and you must!), here’s the official synopsis:
Ritualistic murders, which once lived only in his nightmares, have now begun occurring in Owen Whitemore’s reality. The stylized killings bear the unmistakable signature of infamous serial killer – and current deathrow inmate – Dr. Eugene Branch (Armand Assante), thrusting young Owen on an unlikely collision course with the volatile monster.
Enter Dr. Jonas Julian (Ron Perlman), world-renowned authority on sleep disorders and dream analysis, who has one additional special discipline that will ultimately spell the difference between salvation and destruction for his young patient. As the clock ticks down toward Branch’s execution, Owen’s life uravels and the murders escalate. Suspicion is cast on Owen as the myster deepens and the story hurtles toward its breathtaking climax.
Kind of a long one, but we survived it. And you know, it sounds like it has a shot at being fairly decent. At least Perlman and Assante will give it their all, as like I said, Perlman always delivers the goods.
KILLER BY NATURE is currently wrapping post-production, with a hopeful release date by the end of the year. Stick around for more goodies from KILLER BY NATURE as it comes down the pipe!
Perlman’s HELLBOY co-star Selma Blair!
