We’ve got a couple of really cool exclusive images from an upcoming horror short called Kadence which will be written and directed by Marvel visual artist Jacob Johnston (he’s worked on Avengers 2, Guardians of the Galaxy, Captain America: The Winter Solider, Thor).

In the short, “Still reeling from the loss of his mother, a damaging and complex relationship with his father and a relentless battle with his own inner demons, Kadin’s [17] grip on reality is loosening by the day. Amid this struggle comes an enigmatic and brazen new neighbor, Marissa [19], who, along with the promise of a budding new friendship gives Kadin an ancient voodoo doll. Her reassurance is seductive and the promise of a brighter future leads Kadin to make a sinister choice.” The impending project will be produced by Rachel Kiri Walker, Nicole Hendrix and Jason Rostovsky.

Kadence will star Alyson Stoner (Step Up, Cheaper By The Dozen), Bailey Chase (Longmire, Saving Grace, “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”) and Zane Holtz (From Dusk Till Dawn, The Perks of Being a Wallflower). The cast was assembled by Wallace/Gallagher Casting (Sara Wallace, Jaime Gallagher), who recently cast Red Wing with Bill Paxton and Frances Fisher and several of Caliber Media’s recent films, including the slasher Some Kind of Hate. Gallagher also produces “Ain’t It Cool with Harry Knowles”, which will debut it’s second season on PBS in Austin later this year.

Our exclusive pics were designed by Marvel senior concept illustrators Jackson Sze and Anthony Francisco. Shooting will take place in Los Angeles mid July. Head below to check them out and hit up the short’s Facebook and Kickstarter pages (the latter of which seems to be doing pretty well).

In the horror prequel, “A shaman instructs Mila to return a mystical bracelet, the Kawaturih, to the ‘Dancing Village,’ a remote site on the easternmost tip of Java Island. Joined by her cousin, Yuda, and his friends Jito and Arya, Mila arrives on the island only to discover that the village elder has passed away, and that the new guardian, Mbah Buyut, isn’t present.

“Various strange and eerie events occur while awaiting Mbah Buyut’s return, including Mila being visited by Badarawuhi, a mysterious, mythical being who rules the village. When she decides to return the Kawaturih without the help of Mgah Buyut, Mila threatens the village’s safety, and she must join a ritual to select the new ‘Dawuh,’ a cursed soul forced to dance for the rest of her life.”

Kimo Stamboel directs from a screenplay by Lele Laila.
