Exclusive Images From Upcoming Horror Short ‘Kadence’!
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 This Tempting Madness, “Mia awakens from a coma grievously injured, her memory fractured. As she puts the pieces of her past together, she starts to question her own actions, and her perception of reality.”
Jennifer E. Montgomery makes her feature directorial debut from a script she co-wrote with director of photography Andrew Davis, inspired by Montgomery’s first-hand experience with tragedy involving her best friend.
“Months before the incident, there were signals that her world was unraveling,” says Montgomery. “I could feel the pressure building, though I didn’t know what form it would take. I never could have known what violence would come, and I certainly never imagined making a film about it.”
Austin Stowell (“NCIS: Origins”), Suraj Sharma (Happy Death Day 2U), Mojean Aria (Reminiscence), Amol Shah (“For All Mankind”), and Zenobia Shroff (“Ms. Marvel”) round out the cast.
Smoke Jumper Films and Mango Monster Productions produce in association with Catchlight Studios (Heretic, The Blackening).
This Tempting Madness is rated R for “language, violence/bloody images, and brief sexuality.”
