Forthcoming Attractions - Desperate Measures

If you're familiar with our regular "Short Film Showcase" you may remember a John Carpenter-inspired slasher by the name of Cold Blood that featured on the site earlier this year. Well, Cold Blood director Steve Looker recently dropped us an email to give us the heads up on his latest project, a feature-length thriller entitled Desperate Measures. Here's the synopsis...

"Ross Hadley has been kidnapped and held on a remote farmhouse. A drink and drug addict, his two captors put him through a brutal regime to get him clean. But when he gets clean, Ross finds out the shocking real reasons behind his incarceration."

Currently in post-production, Desperate Measures stars Stephen Lord (EastEnders), Ricci Harnett (Rise of the Footsoldier) and Max Beesley Snr. (Looking for Eric) and is written and produced by Chris Green. If the trailer is anything to go by this could be one to watch out for when it's released next year. Take a look...
