So I opened up my laptop, and about 10 months later I had a very rough, very long play typed out. Years passed and one night I was watching TV and a promo came on for a show about a cult on an island. “Years ago I heard a story about scientists who had implanted memories into lab rats, and the idea stuck with me. William Warren, who co-wrote and directed Apocalypse Island, says the story was the culmination of two different ideas he had been working on for some time. When asked about the challenges of producing an independent film, Downey says, “Being completely independent limits you in terms of budget, but frees you in terms of how you tell your story.” BEHIND THE STORY Not just produce any movie, but produce and score a full-length feature film that we are proud of.” The fact that a small woman-owned company has been able to finance, write, and produce a movie is phenomenal. “Historically, the movie and production business has predominantly been a man’s world. In addition to being the company’s first narrative feature film, Apocalypse Island is also a woman-produced film. It reminds me of my beginnings.” – Nia Peeples WOMAN-PRODUCED The experience of enthusiasm and “dream-making” can be intoxicating. “After 30 years of primetime TV and films running the gamut in terms of budget, name value, and quality, it’s always refreshing to step into a company of filmmakers who are fresh and imaginative, and inspired rather than jilted. Most noteworthy, the film stars Pretty Little Liars’ actress Nia Peeples as Claudia, one of the film’s most dynamic characters along with a riveting breakout performance by Dean Kostlich in the role of Pastor. In the end, he discovers the true nature of the island he calls home, that of his father, and how unreliable the mind and memory truly are. It follows Cam, the Pastor’s son, as he seeks to save his sister’s life from a mysterious affliction.
