Fans Support Proposed High-Octane Action Sequences on Indiegogo.
Coatwolf Productions, the team behind the 2011 Sundance indie favorite - Bellflower, officially announced today their kick-off crowdfunding campaign for their forthcoming release, Chuck Hank and The San Diego Twins. The full-length feature, currently in pre-production, will bring the same look and grit that fans have come to expect in a surrealist action/drama influenced heavily by ‘80s action films and side-scrolling fighting games. Indiegogo is hosting their efforts live at http://coatwolf.com. Supporters can enjoy rare and exclusive perks for supporting Coatwolf’s efforts including premiere tickets, walk-on roles and even shadowing the crew during production. Filled with gritty charm, action and irreverent humor this original story features larger-than-life characters, explosive stunt sequences, scenic Southern California locations and custom high-performance vehicles. Written and directed by Jonathan Keevil (Bellflower) the film will feature members of the beloved Coatwolf crew that fans know and love - including actors Tyler Dawson and Evan Glodell, as well as 2012 Independent Spirit Award for Best Cinematography nominee, Joel Hodge.
“I think crowdfunding is a better way to finance films and hope that eventually all Coatwolf projects will be made this way. I have been a fan of Jonathan Keevil’s creative work for a long time and am extremely excited to be helping him produce his first feature length film,” says Producer Evan Glodell on supporting the crew’s efforts for the campaign launch. Director Jonathan Keevil also comments on his goal for bringing his vision to the big screen through crowdfunding, “We want to create a visually rich world that honors, but doesn't exploit, a time when a street fight necessitated brass knuckles, chains, cut-off jean jackets, and HUGE Mohawks.”
A turf war has been raging in Oldtown for generations. On one side, The Syndicate – an evil gang of crank-head misfits, who have been set on muscling the San Diego family out of the parcel of land they own in the center of town. On the other side, the San Diego family: Tony and Johnny - twin brothers - and their sister Salsa are the last of a bloodline that stretches back for generations. Their mother, father and brothers were all brutally murdered in violent clashes with The Syndicate over the years. Now the Syndicate is set on crushing the last remnants of the San Diego family, and taking over Oldtown for good. When they kidnap Salsa and hold her for ransom, all hell breaks loose. The twins and their best friend Chuck Hank must decide whether to hand over the deed to their family's land in order to save their sister or fight, the Final Fight!
