We've been following the progress of Risen for a while now and at one point we were unsure if zombies massacred the film crew as we hadn't heard heads or tails from their camp in a while. Well, it is safe to say that the film is done and has been making the festival circuit with great accolades. RISEN won Best Feature and Best Make-Up Effects at the Chicago Horror Film Festival in October.
Plot Summary:
"For Sam Mills(Joseph Thackery), his wife Jenny (Gigi Erneta, El Chupacabra, Crossed, Raptor) and his brother Nick (Jason Harper,) the dawn of a new day in suburbia quickly becomes hell on earth when an army of flesh-eating dead invades. With their infant daughter suddenly lost in a city abandoned by the living and ruled by the dead, Sam and Jenny embark on a desperate mission to find her. When the rising tide of the dead forces them into a makeshift rescue station under the rule of a lone Texas Ranger (Steven Lee) and beseiged by ravenous hordes, they fight to prove that a parent's love for a child is a force not even the undead can stop."
We had the chance to speak with RISEN director Damon Crump about the film, check out the interview here (http://www.revenantmagazine.com/Risen.htm)
