Production begins on modern day thriller, One In The Gun, in Los Angeles, CA.
Hollywood, CA (PRWEB) April 8, 2008 -- Popular Press Media Group (PPMG) announced today that production will begin on the modern day mystery thriller, 'One In The Gun' on May 5, 2008 in Los Angeles.
'One In The Gun' is a sexy brain teaser of a thriller with nods to classic film noir of the past mixed with a post-modern flair of David Lynch-style surrealism and surprises. When Mickey Lewis (Steven Man), a homeless struggling artist crosses paths with Katrina, the beautiful rich wife of Arthur Webb and is enlisted to paint their home, deadly passions ignite. Soon hidden agendas, dangerous seductions, double and triple-crosses spiral Mickey's life out of control leading to a motel in the middle of nowhere filled with strange people and twisted secrets that all hold the key to the mystery of Mickey's past, present, and future.
Mickey Lewis is being played by breaking independent star Steven Man, who's performance strength in the horror/thriller 'Savage Island' helped the movie take home over 15 awards, including nine Best Picture Awards and secure both domestic (Ardustry) and international (Shoreline) distribution. Success followed again in 'Sweet Deadly Dreams' with three Best Picture Awards and a Best Actor Award for Man's turn as a burned-out private detective; and four Best Picture awards as American diplomat Gregory Jackson, in the period drama 'Orizuru'.

Kanefsky's teen romp, 'Pretty Cool Too', still is a hot rental on virtually every retailers list. Kanefsky has written and directed 15 feature films (including 'There's Nothing Out There', 'Tomorrow by Midnight' (starring Jorge Garcia 'Lost'), 'Jacqueline Hyde' (Warner Home Video), 'The Hazing' (Showtime/Starz), 'Corpses' (starring Jeff Fahey of ABC Buena Vista TV's 'Lost') and has written 11 more produced features.
