REVENGE OF THE NECROMANCER
Synopsis
Jimmy isn’t just another fan of heavy metal, horror and the occult. He is obsessed with contacting the soul of his deceased mother through black magic and he is getting dangerously close. His dysfunctional father doesn’t get him and in high school he is considered a weirdo. It doesn’t bother him, because he is convinced he doesn’t need anyone, so he keeps to himself. That is until the new boy in his class, Amir, befriends him and convinces him to impress the hottest girls at the school, Louise and Anna, with a simple ritual. After the ritual Jimmy can sense that something is seriously wrong and what they did is disturbing the city’s dead, including his mom. Frantically, he tries to convince the others of an impending doom, but ends up alienating himself even further. He realises that he can’t prevent it alone, so in order to stop the dead, he has to learn how to coexist with the living.

Director's statement:
My ambition with this project is to make a solid and entertaining youth horror film with a good dramaturgical foundation. I value both content and form equally. I want to seduce and immerge the audience by creating interesting characters in an entertaining supernatural universe. I aim for MAGIC rather than realism.
About the director:
Sohail A. Hassan belongs to the earliest generation of Spielberg and Lucas fans. He loves genres like sci-fi, fantasy and adventure. Sohail's goal is to tell entertaining imaginary stories that, even though they are unreal, adhere to all dramaturgical rules for solid storytelling. He calls it PURE FICTION.
