Bloody Disgusting has the first word on Witchcraft Motion Picture Company and Good Wizard’s Creep Box, writer/director Patrick Biesemans’ cerebral sci-fi thriller that was recently shot on location in Manhattan.
The film follows a unique engineer at a technology firm specializing in communicating with “whispers” of the recently deceased. Through his exploration of this unsettling piece of newly-developed technology, his research deepens and he finds himself on a dark path as he becomes increasingly unglued from reality.
Bloody also has the above first still to share from the film starring Geoffrey Cantor (Netflix’s Daredevil), Sean Mahon (BBC’s EastEnders), Ian Lithgow (3rd Rock from the Sun), Katie Kuang (HBO’S Westworld), Annie Young (The Conjuring 2), and Annemarie Lawless (The Mountain).
An expansion of Biesemans’ short film of the same name that played North Bend Film Festival, FilmQuest, H.P Lovecraft FF, Under Worlds, and San Francisco Short Film Festival.
Two-time Independent Spirit Award nominee Noah Lang produced for Witchcraft, and Bobby Campbell for Good Wizard. Derek Rubin and Blake Hoss also produced with Rod Blackhurst, Anthony Gentile, and John Gentile executive producing. Jeff Smith co-produced.
The film features cinematography by acclaimed DP David Kruta who lensed Sundance favorite Concussion and a score by Nick Bohun who most recently scored HBOmax’s Indie Spirit Award nominee This Is Not a War Story.
The film is intended as a launch for a proposed franchise stemming episodic anthology television, podcasts and future feature installments leveraging the near future technology of the film as a recurring and refillable narrative device.
