Plot:
Father Dudley (Tony Todd), a long-time Catholic priest, is dedicated to his profession and is watching out for his close friend Robby Duray (Jimmy Drain), during a testing time in the latter’s life. He also takes on the volatile task of taming Robby’s diabolic alter ego and steers him away from the snares of Satan.
Cassandra (Vida Ghaffari) is the alluring and mysterious muse of Master Makin… the mysterious owner of the haunted vault near Strain City’s infamous cemetery and narrator of the shadows…
Country of origin:
USA
Filming:
Production by ThunderKnight Entertainment began in Denver, Colorado, in 2020 when we initially covered it but the pandemic lockdown halted filming. Post-production was also delayed although a 2021 release was initially planned. If you visit horror websites that just cut and paste press releases complete with gushing hyperbole you’d assume that the movie is a 2024 production, however, its gestation has been long-winded.
Release:
In May 2024 Realm of Shadows was finally made available for streaming on VOD platforms.
