Ellen Wander, CEO of Film Bridge International (Winnie Mandela, Misconduct, Marshall, and Spinning Man) and Gabriela Revilla Lugo of Revek Entertainment (The Tribes of Palos Verdes, The Last Weekend in May, Gone: VR 360) announce the upcoming feature Trick, a horror thriller to be directed by genre master Patrick Lussier (My Bloody Valentine, Drive Angry, Terminator: Genisys) and written by Todd Farmer, alongside Lussier.
The story centers on an
elusive serial killer, who descends upon a small town annually,
bringing terror and death. He is responsible for gruesome murders year
after year, each in different jurisdictions and seemingly unrelated. No
one believes this could be the same killer. Detective Denver has faced
Trick once before - he shot and killed him. Or so everyone keeps
telling him. However, Denver knows Trick is out there and he's coming
back for revenge.
"After much discussion with
Director Lussier, Dermot was the only choice for this role and we are
ecstatic that he was able to take on the project." stated Wander.
Dermot Mulroney (The Family Stone, The Wedding Date)
plays Detective Mike Denver. Denver puts his works before anything else
in life, including his own marriage but his no-nonsense attitude and
steadfast approach makes him a perfect fit for a career in law
enforcement. Against everyone else's judgement, he is convinced that
Trick is not only alive and well, but the one responsible for a series
of gruesome murders recurring over several years.
Director Patrick Lussier's lengthy and accomplished résumé
includes several of the most successful horror films and television
programs in recent years. His eye for detail was instrumental in
editing the numerous Wes Craven films, including the famous Scream franchise, Red Eye, New Nightmare, and Cursed to name just a few.
Prolific actor Mulroney, has starred in over 70 films in a career
spanning more than 3 decades. Most recently, he filmed an episode for
the highly anticipated Netflix series "Homecoming" starring Julia
Roberts, his co star in the box office hit My Best Friend's Wedding.
Writer Todd Farmer has worked with Patrick Lussier previously. He has written several genre films including Jason X, My Bloody Valentine and Drive Angry (alongside Lussier).
Ellen S. Wander of Film Bridge
International will produce and handle worldwide sales for the film.
Gabriela Lugo will also serve as producer. Additionally, Film Bridge
International has partnered Chimney's Fredrik Zander to handle
post-production.
