A number of familiar faces will pop up over the course of this supernatural saga.

German director/producer Timo Rose has begun production on GAME OF DEATH–THE SIX DOORS TO HELL, which he scripted with Nando Rohner and stars David Ruessel, Carlos Nikolai Campagna, Deena Unverzagt and Annelie Harner. Also in the movie, making cameo appearances, are a number of veteran genre directors, including Jack Sholder (A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 2: FREDDY’S REVENGE, THE HIDDEN), Brian Yuzna (SOCIETY, BRIDE OF RE-ANIMATOR) and the late Jeff Burr (FROM A WHISPER TO A SCREAM, LEATHERFACE: THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE III), and actors, like Lynne Griffin (BLACK CHRISTMAS, THANKSGIVING), John Dugan (THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE), Elizabeth Shepherd (TOMB OF LIGEIA, DAMIEN: OMEN 2), Norbert Weisser (THE THING), etc. The synopsis: “In the near future, ‘The Regime’ is the worldwide government. They oppress the weak, torture them and kill them. Only the strong survive. The story begins with Ken Shiro sitting at his daughter’s grave and vowing revenge. Suddenly a mysterious figure appears and tells him that his daughter is in hell. Determined, Ken Shiro sets out to find the gate to hell and save his daughter…whatever it takes.”

Look for another casting announcement on GAME OF DEATH–THE SIX DOORS TO HELL later this week!
