JOHN THE REVELATOR

SCHEDULED FOR PRODUCTION 2026

In the storm-ravaged wilds of Far North Queensland, Australia, unbreakable bonds of brotherhood collide with shadowy vendettas in a pulse-pounding thriller inspired by the unsolved 1973 Kuranda Train Robbery.

 

Vietnam-scarred veterans turned outlaw bikers roar through rain-soaked rainforests and treacherous trails, forging alliances amid betrayal, loss, and redemption—where every twist hides a secret and justice thunders on two wheels. From harrowing escapes and forbidden romances to explosive heists shrouded in mystery, this gritty saga blends Mad Max adrenaline with Deer Hunter depth, promising heart-stopping chases, vengeful reckonings, and whispers of hidden fortunes that will leave you craving the full ride.

The Night Flyers

THE NIGHT FLYERS

SCHEDULED FOR PRODUCTION 2027

The Night Flyers follows a documentary crew venturing deep into remote Indigenous sites to uncover a forgotten legend, only to awaken an ancient force that has guarded the land for centuries.

​

As night falls, the team finds themselves hunted by supernatural entities tied to the region’s oldest stories, trapped between cultural truths they don’t fully understand and a terror far beyond anything they could have imagined.

​

Set against the haunting beauty of the outback and the vast expanse of the Great Barrier Reef, the film blends grounded mythology with high-intensity horror to deliver a gripping, internationally marketable Australian thriller.

​

Recently, it was awarded Best Horror Film at the 2025 New York International Film Awards.
