Writer and Director Lowell Dean (WolfCop) is back with new horror movie Dark Match, set to have its World Premiere at the Fantasia Film Festival this Sunday, July 21, 2024.
The ’80s set wrestling film stars Canadian actors Ayisha Issa (Transplant) and Steven Ogg (Grand Theft Auto V, The Walking Dead), with wrestling legend Chris Jericho (Terrifier 2).
In Dark Match, “A small time wrestling company accepts a well-paying but too good to be true gig in a backwoods town only to learn, too late, that the community is run by a mysterious cult leader… and their event is now a pay-per-view fight to the death.”
Lowell Dean tells Bloody Disgusting, “When I wrote Dark Match I questioned if it was too crazy to get made, but within months I was on set in Edmonton, with a hard working cast and crew all pouring their (fake) blood and sweat in the wrestling ring to bring it to life.”
The film will premiere in the Canadian-cinema focused Septentrion Shadows section of the festival on Sunday, July 21st at 6:30pm at the Henry F. Hall Building at Concordia University.
The upcoming horror movie Dark Match was produced by Dept. 9 Studios’ John K. MacDonald, Don Depoe, and Michael Feehan, as well as Michael Peterson and Rhonda Baker.
