Howard J. Ford has completed production on Bone Keeper, his latest horror film, which follows six friends who enter a remote cave system in search of the legend of the ‘Bone Keeper’. As they explore further, they encounter a mysterious creature that may have lived there for thousands of years.
The film was produced through Ford’s company Latitude Films. His previous directing credits include The Dead, The Dead 2, Never Let Go, and Darkgame.
The cast is led by John Rhys-Davies, known for his roles in The Lord of the Rings and Indiana Jones franchises. Also featured are Sarah Alexandra Marks, Louis James, Tiffany Hannam-Daniels, Sophia Eleni, Danny Rahim, Tyler Winchcombe and Sarah T. Cohen. Giordano Aita serves as the film’s visual effects supervisor.
REinvent is handling international sales and is expected to present the first footage at the Cannes Film Festival.
In a statement, Ford said: “I’ve always been intrigued with caves and caverns and imagined if something lurked down there in the depths, so I am very excited to be making a creature-feature and reuniting with the REinvent team and not least working with the legendary Mr. John Rhys-Davies, who has been an absolute blast.”
A release date has not yet been announced.
