‘He Never Died’ Poster Grows Angel Wings

He Never Died

Back in May we told you that Vertical Entertainment had acquired the crime-horror-thriller He Never Died, which stars Feast‘s Henry Rollins.

Personally, I hated the movie, while our own Patrick Cooper wasn’t too thrilled by it when he reviewed it out of last March’s SXSW.

No matter, it was announced that the filmmakers are using Indiegogo to finance December 18th theatrical run for the film, which worked really well for the far superior We Are What We Are. In addition, to build hype, they’ve now released the below one-sheet from the indie written and directed by indie helmer Jason Krawczyk (The Briefcase).

He Never Died stars punk icon Henry Rollins as Jack, a mysterious loner who has lived an inexplicably long life fueled by blood lust and filled with crime and violence.

Rollins is joined on screen by the Twilight franchise star Boo Boo Stewart (X-Men: Days of Future Past), Kate Greenhouse (The Dark Hours), Jordan Todosey (“Degrassi: The Next Generation”), and Steven Ogg, who is fresh off his success playing the popular character Trevor in the critically acclaimed “Grand Theft Auto V.”

“He Never Died follows Jack in his battle with cannibalism and mental sobriety. An exceptionally prolonged life has brought depression and detachment. Jack buys stolen blood from a hospital intern, plays bingo, sleeps fourteen hours a day, watches television six hours a day, and lives alone. This is his life – he has shelled himself away from social interactions. The fuse is lit when Jack’s past comes back to rattle him. Jack must now walk a tight rope of sobriety and try to eat as few people as possible in this violent tale of personal responsibility and self worth. As it turns out, there are very few reasons to live when you can’t die.
