Board a Train from Hell with ‘Speed Demon’ this May

Maverick Film and Complex Corp have acquired the demons on a train film, Speed Demon, and let me tell you, it sounds like one wild ride.

“When Father Novak and Sister Lu board a train from Montreal to New York City, they weren’t prepared for the danger and evil that would pursue them. After the train is taken over by the demon Asmodeus, Father Novak and Sister Lu must battle possessed passengers on a runaway train with Sister Lu forced to overcome her faltering faith and perform the first exorcism done by a nun.”

Terror Train meets Demons? I’m on board with that.

The film stars Katie Cassidy (A Nightmare on Elm Street) and William H. Macy (Fargo).

Jon Keeyes (The Cult Killer) directed from a script by Domenico Salvaggio (Die).

Cassidy, Cecil Chambers (Bunker) and Vanessa Coifman (Unthinkable) produced the film with Switzer, Ian Niles (Lie Hard), Andy Thompson (Enemy Lines), James Norrie (The Void), Nina Kolokouri (The Void), Stephen Huszar (Unsinkable), Daniel Ford Beavis (Last Train to Fortune), Kevin Paulhus (Blended Christmas), Bayann Oluyadi, Saleem Elmasri (Bunker), Clay Pecorin (To Catch A Killer), Jonathan Marques, John Marques (Prayer and Reflection), and Tyler W. Konney (May December) serving as executive producers.

“Speed Demon is an intensely fun horror movie. It’s got a strong story, demons, action, plenty of special effects, and truly unique characters,” said Keeyes. “Getting to work with Katie Cassidy and William H. Macy was a complete joy. Bill was incredible as our Father Novak, and such a professional, bringing a real heart to the character. And Katie nailed it as a nun who has lost her faith, struggles with addictions, and must overcome her past in order to become this kickass warrior nun.”

Board the train from Hell when Speed Demon screeches into theaters, on demand and digital on May 31st.
