The shoot has finally ended on new British horror flick ‘The Reverend’ and us lucky fellows can now check out a few stills from the freshly wrapped production. The Neil Jones (‘Risen’) horror project finished its 5 week shoot recently in Wales and is expecting a release later this year. The movie stars Stuart Brennan, Doug Bradley (‘Hellraiser’), Tamer Hassan (‘Kick-Ass’), Geovanni Lombardo Radice, the sexy Emily Booth and ‘Eastender’s very own Alfie Moon, Shane Richie. It even features legendary screen star Rutger Hauer as the Devil! Check out the stills below.
“It was a tough 5 week shoot” says director Neil Jones, “with plenty of night shoots, but the crew were superb and the cast really stepped up to the plate. I’m excited to start the edit and see it come together now, and to have excitement left at this stage; that’s always a good sign.”
He continues talking about working with Rutger Hauer…
“There are a few actors that you always look to work with and for me, Rutger was a name at the top of my list. And this role was made for him. He’s an incredible actor and I think what surprised me most about working with him, was his genuine enthusiasm to make the role memorable. He certainly didn’t want to just walk on, perform and leave, he wanted many discussions about how to portray such an iconic role and because of this, I think his performance will be very memorable.”

And here’s the synopsis:
“Fresh from seminary school a new Reverend embarks on his first parish. A small, low maintenance Chapel based in the quiet idyllic setting of a quiet country village. While on the surface the village seems to be a peaceful parish, with perfect residents, soon it becomes apparent that something more sinister lurks beneath the façade of a local businessman. On a wet, cold night a mysterious girl visits The Reverend at the chapel. Cold and upset she is welcomed in warmly, soon it becomes apparent that her visit is not for sanctuary but to deliver a message, a message in the form of a deep, bloody bite… Awoken with an unknown, uncontrollable thirst a confused Reverend can find no evidence of the girl from the night before, with nothing but the thirst and memory of the bite, The Reverend embarks on his mandate, to clean up the village and the neighbouring estate, by preaching or feasting.”
