Lockheart Filmes Ltda. sent us some really cool movie stills from the independent Brazilian horror-fantasy “Beyond the Grave” aka Porto Dos Mortos written and directed by Davi de Oliveira Pinheiro.
Synopsis: “Beyond the Grave” follows a dark journey through the wastelands of a dystopic Brazil. In this forsaken landscape, Lockheart will join forces with a group of survivors and face his demonic nemesis and the rage of the “returners” who inhabited the world. “This is not a zombie or serial killer film, but a reaction to the recent production as well as to my own preconceptions of what the movie should be. It’s a violent and emotional experience, mixing possession, black magic, the living dead and intense doses of suspense, character work and spanking action”, believes Davi.
“Beyond the Grave” was shot in 22 days between the months of February and April in the city of Porto Alegre and surroundings. Locations were specifically chosen and/or adapted for the pessimistic and particular look of the world created by the first time feature director. A crew of forty people was assembled to bring his dream project to life. “Beyond the Grave is full of strong characters and cool set pieces that I have thought for a long time. It’s a real dream to be able to bring such intense images to the screen”, says Davi.
The film is in post production and seeking international distribution.
