The last time a frightening film was shot on Martha’s Vineyard, it involved a great white shark prowling the waters. This month, filmmaker David Kann has been shuttling his loyal crew of actors and cameramen around the island to shoot "Anubis: Rising," an independent horror movie he hopes will return the Vineyard to the horror map.
"Anubis: Rising" tells the story of five reckless youths who summon the Egyptian god of the underworld during a midnight ceremony. Before long, the youths are being picked off one by one while the survivors seek to return Anubis to the realm of the dead. The lightly-budgeted film is produced by David Kann and David Huey, based on a screenplay by David Buscemi. Mr. Kann is the director and editor. Director of photography Ed Tillman and grip/electrician Brian Jones make up the technical crew.
Will try this again and see how it works. The MV Times (http://www.mvtimes.com/Calendar/film.html) seems to have fixed the hiccup on their site, so it should load properly now if anyone is bored enough to want to read the full article. ;)
Sure, it's probably a rip-off of Blair Witch, but that doesn't mean it won't be a fun rip-off. :) I'm gonna try and see it, myself. I'm up for just about anything involving Egyptian mythology- which is part of the reason I saw the original Stargate movie.
Check out the movie's main site, Darkside Films (http://www.darksidefilms.com/index1.html) for some nifty stills.
