My name is Antony Lane, I have recently moved to South London to help get things moving with a feature film I am making with Ken Russell, It has received an incredible amount of media attention, it is already being promoted on Empire, SCI-FI Channel website, LoveFilm.com, Odeon Direct, and it is being closely watched by Lion Gate Films. I started promoting the film a year ago, and whilst writing the script in the last few months, I have been organizing a full crew of Hollywood filmmakers, including Ken Russell (Producer), Rich Knight (SFX, POSEIDON, BEOWULF) CORRINE BOSSU (MAKE UP, THE DUTCHESS, KING KONG), a Bafta winning composer, MISHA SEGAL (PHANTOM OF THE OPERA), NICOLA INSTONE (POST PRODUCTION, BATMAN BEGINS) and many more...
For the past year I have been working on a huge advertising campaign, using all the network sites, making clips and promos, doing graphic design, flash websites, basically working the role of producer whilst I get the script completed. We are now in the process of using everything I have brought together to go after funding. We even have a few big names interested in doing the film if the timing is right, I wrote the script with certain people in mind, non of which are un-reachable.

PLOT SUMMARY:
In 1978 a meteorite crash lands into the Swiss Mountains, unleashing a deadly virus. Killing everyone within a 20 mile radius, the incident was covered up by local officials. Now thirty years later the virus is released onto an unsuspecting island off the coast of England. A group of survivors must band together in order to survive the death and destruction of the once friendly locals in this black comedy horror "Invasion Of The Not Quite Dead".
Just to let you know a little about the film, I am pushing to film this on high end HD, (with the RED ONE camera) or if a bigger budget comes in FILM, I want the main goal to be THEATRICAL RELEASE. I am setting my standards very high, I want the film to only have GOOD actors, I want the cinematography to be very dark and atmospheric, I have the choice of 2 amazing cinematographers, one of which did one of Australia's biggest comercial horror films, "UNDEAD".
I am now at a stage were everything is falling together quite nicely, please visit the project site and become an Official Movie Producer at:
