This is a proof of concept short film for the upcoming feature Apocalypse Now Now.


It is the short of the week over at the website Short of the Week, which has even more information on the upcoming project. It is based on the South African fantasy novel by Charlie Human. XYZ Films and Be Phat Motel will be producing, Michael Matthews is directing, the script is being written by District 9 scribe Terri Tatchell, and it stars Garion Dowds and Louw Venter. 

"Snarky, monster-porn-dealing teen, Baxter Zevcenko, might be a serial killer. His girlfriend, Esme, is missing, and he’s the prime suspect. To clear his name, he’ll turn to Cape Town’s grizzliest, drunkest bounty hunter, Jackson ‘Jackie’ Ronin. Little does he know that Ronin is a supernatural bounty-hunter, and that he’s about to be dragged headlong into a deep, dark Cape Town underbelly full of monsters and myth, shadowy government forces, bloodthirsty crow-men and a conspiracy across time and space."
