Jody Quigley truly embodies the suspenseful characters that he portrays, and as a result, his latest horror movie, Impuratus, is no exception. In fact, he spent hours in a make-up chair where an expert make-up artist worked to turn him into a 90-year old man.
The 38-year-old actor, best known for the suspense thriller, Apparition, portrays two stages in the life of Daniel Glassman in Impuratus; a young Civil War soldier, and a much older version of the man on his deathbed grappling with demons.
The stunning Teaser/Promo/Scene for Impuratus — an actual scene from the movie — complete with haunting music and special effects, has already won more than 20 festival awards around the world.
Now, the producers are seeking to attain the funding needed for a green light on the production. With expert writing, a talented cast, high production values, and many twists and turns, Impuratus clearly leaves us wanting more…
View the Teaser/Promo/Scene for Impuratus below:
Impuratus boasts a seasoned cast including, Dee Wallace (E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial), Lili Bordan, (The Book Club), and John Savage, (Summer of Sam).
“This is a special kind of script, because of the challenge of playing a man my age and a guy in his 90’s,” Jody explains. “The movie jumps time from the Civil War, an era you don’t see on film that often, to the 1920s. It is a ghostly experience!”
For Jody, this movie has elements of suspense that goes way beyond what audiences have come to expect from a thriller. “A lot of the movies today are slasher films that are all about blood and guts,” he explains. “This is a thriller that deals with ghosts, and because it is more realistic, it will definitely keep you on the edge-of-your-seat.
