A moody, violent take on modern Film Noir meets Twilight Zone.
Unpunished is currently in final stages post production as of 3/09.

______"Unpunished" is a movie currently in postproduction, with the style leaning towards film noir. It begins on an ordinary summer day for artist John but steadily escalates into a gritty violent moody darkness as it progresses to it's ultraviolent climax. All of the scenes are being shot in Syracuse, Skaneateles, and upstate New York. The movie is shot in black and white and digital format. The story is about an artist living alone, who turned in a "friend" who bragged about killing a kid during a store robbery. The man is released 23 years later and seeks revenge via a home invasion. There's a twist to the story.
