Being a big of Cronenberg’s SHIVERS, this casting news brings a smile to my face. The announcement that Lynn Lowry has been in the upcoming Jose Prendes-directed thriller, THE DIVINE TRAGEDIES has made its way online and with the already announced Ken Foree and Sean Whalen set to star as well, it’s beginning to sound like a hell of a time. Read the official press release for more info!
“Writer/Director Jose Prendes (THE HAUNTING OF WHALEY HOUSE) and producers Jon and James Kondelik are excited to welcome the gorgeous genre vet Lynn Lowry (THE CRAZIES, SHIVERS, I DRINK YOUR BLOOD) to the cast of their new film.
“I’m thrilled to be working with Jose Prendes again,” says Lynn. “THE HAUNTING OF WHALEY HOUSE” was a great experience and I’ve gotten so many compliments from fans about my work in that film. I’m certain that Jose will do a brilliant Job on this film as well!”
DIVINE TRAGEDIES, based loosely on the famous Leopold and Loeb murder case, tells the tale of Charles Brubaker (Graham Denman, The Haunting of Whaley House) and his half-brother Thomas Lo Bianco (Jon Kondelik, Airplane Vs. Volcano), who concoct a deadly game to test their superior intelligence against the dimwitted masses. This game will eventually lead to murder, and when Genevieve, a beautiful single mother, enters their lives they finally find the perfect girl for their first kill. But problems arise when they quickly discover that Detective Homer Gaul (Ken Foree), a cop with a very special gift, is hot on their trail.
“Lynn is simply wonderful,” say Jose. “She is the kind of actor that draws us in and makes us care and easily changes the dynamic of any scene. I am honored to be working with one of my favorites again.”
Filming begins at the end of February.”
