Over the past several months we’ve talked quite a bit about Matthan Harris’ upcoming film Baphomet, but lately things have been quiet. That changes today with some new casting news. Read on to see who’s just joined the project!
Harris tells us, “Italian horror icon Giovanni Lombardo Radice (aka John Morghen) will be playing cult leader Henrik Brandr. Giovanni has acted in such horror films as City of the Living Dead, Cannibal Ferox, House on the Edge of the Park, StageFright, and The Omen (2006). I had the honor of working with Giovanni on my first feature, The Inflicted, in which he played the heroic Lt. Lorenzo.”
As for when we’ll be seeing some footage from the film, Harris promises, “The Baphomet teaser trailer is currently being prepared for a February shoot with special FX being done by Oliver Müller.”
Harris serves as writer, director, co-star, and producer with Incisive Pictures on Baphomet. For more info and updates, keep your eyes on the Baphomet Facebook page.
Synopsis:
A family in Northern California celebrates their 24-year-old daughter’s pregnancy. The celebration is interrupted when Satanic cult leader Henrik Brandr unexpectedly visits their ranch. Henrik offers to pay the family a large sum for ownership of their land, claiming it is sacred to his congregation. Jacob Richardson, the father, rejects the offer due to the priceless sentimental value of the ranch. Henrik, displeased, begins to put devastating curses on the Richardsons, trying to force them off their land – even if it means murdering them.
After suffering unexplainable tragedies, the Richardsons seek help from Marybeth, a white witch high priestess. They soon discover a terrible secret about their house, revealing why their land is sacred to the cult. They realize they must protect their house from the cult at all costs, and a violent battle between good and evil ensues.
