"NEON KILLER" - My New Short Film, Coming Soon To A Computer Near You!.....

Fresh from FRIGHTFEST '08 and SAN SEBASTIAN HORROR AND FANTASY FESTIVAL '08.....I'll be uploading this to youtube in the next couple of weeks....




"NEON KILLER" follows two burnt out, grizzled Detectives, Balmoral and McClagen, as they track down the forementioned maniac; a highly inventive psychopath who has been on a savage killing spree for the last 15 years.

Whereas my previous short-film "SLASH HIVE" was a tribute to the heady excesses of italian Horror films from the 1970s (the Giallo genre), "NEON KILLER" is shot in the style of Michael Mann's early '80s work ("THIEF", "MIAMI VICE", "MANHUNTER"), crossed with the grim brutality and moustaches of 1970s Italian Police Thrillers (such as "LIVE LIKE A COP, DIE LIKE A MAN" and "VIOLENT PROFESSIONALS" ). Very Special visual effects by Alex Chandon, Michael J McCarthy, and Paul Ewen.
