Having won two fest awards, the movie is set for another screening in California this weekend.
The creators of the horror/Western A TOWN CALLED PURGATORY sent along the exclusive behind-the-scenes photos seen below, to promote its showing at this weekend’s Monsterpalooza in Pasadena, CA. Directed by Matt Servitto and scripted by Dan De Luca from a story by Ken Arnold, the film was produced by and co-stars the trio, who previously teamed on the award-winning THE NIGHT WATCHMEN. Arnold and De Luca will attend the Monsterpalooza screening, along with fellow actors Kevin Jiggetts and Zachary Steffey. A TOWN CALLED PURGATORY took Best Feature Film prizes at both the Garden State Film Festival and the Creature Feature Weekend Film Festival. The synopsis: “In the haunting aftermath of the Civil War, principled Yankee lawman Beau Riffen [Arnold] joins forces with Cody Parnum [De Luca], a tormented ex-Confederate tracker. Their quest to apprehend notorious train robbers leads them to Purgatory, a town eerily deserted. Amidst the silence, they cross paths with a lone African-American trapper and a prisoner harboring secrets who whispers of an ancient menace. As the shadows of Purgatory tighten, an impending confrontation with The Skinwalker beckons, testing bonds of trust and humanity in their gripping fight for survival.”
