"Highlander: Dark Places"

HIGHLANDER: DARK PLACES introduces Malej, a Brazilian Immortal who is over 500 years old. As he struggles to suppress the darkness that is slowly consuming him, Malej faces a choice: leave the Game to be with his mortal love, or give in to a half-millennium worth of rage by facing his one true enemy. DARK PLACES is a tale of love, honor and redemption - and an intriguing new chapter in the vast HIGHLANDER mythology.

"Highlander: Dark Places" will be a short film to appear officially on season 4, 5, or 6 of Highlander: The Series on blu-ray as a special feature. With Brainful Productions we have a pretty large production crew under us (around 15) led by Tom Nord of Adobe who's no stranger to short films. I've run all of my crazy ideas by him and he hasn't batted any eyebrows at any of them so I think we're in pretty good shape.

I'm directing it and writing, with (DC Comics, Dynamite Entertainment writer) Brandon Jerwa (reuniting with me for the first time since we worked on "Highlander Origins: The Kurgan" for Dynamite a couple years ago) not only co-writing but also scoring the movie with his local band, SD6. He's also worked with Tom Nord and Brainful Productions before on "Mythplaced" for the Seattle 48 Hour Film Festival.

Very excited about this and we'll do our best to make sure it does not disappoint. My goal is to deliver something we haven't seen before but still feels very much in the vein of the Highlander we know.
