There has been a crop of unsettling, yet fascinating efforts arriving from Down Under over the last few years. Films such as SNOWTOWN, THE HORSEMAN and ANIMAL KINGDOM being particular standouts that creep under the skin to tell emotionally disturbing (and sometimes fact-based) stories. The latest looking to have the same effect is Kelly Dolen’s brutally devastating, JOHN DOE, which offers to pose questions of morality, while the bloody carnage unfolds onscreen.
Jamie Bamber takes on the title role of an unrepentant serial-killer, looking to put right what the law gets wrong. Think an even more darker and twisted version of DEXTER. Check out the official plot synopsis, trailer and poster below.
The Justice system has gone mad, perpetrators have more rights than victims, and repeat offenders continually slip between the cracks. It’s wrong, and it needs to change. One man sacrificed himself to transform society, he forced us to become a community, he compelled us to stand up and protect one another from violent crime. How did he do it? He killed people, lots of people…
JOHN DOE is expected to hit cinemas late in 2013.
