Acclaimed British indie filmmaker Howard J. Ford has wrapped production on his latest horror film, 'BONE KEEPER', a survival horror story set deep within a remote cave system. The film stars John Rhys-Davies, known globally for his roles as Gimli in The Lord of the Rings trilogy and Sallah in the Indiana Jones franchise.
Produced by Ford’s Latitude Films, 'BONE KEEPER' follows six friends who venture into an isolated cave to investigate the legend of the Bone Keeper—only to discover that the ancient legend may be terrifyingly real. As they delve deeper, they must escape a mysterious creature believed to have inhabited the cave for thousands of years.
The cast includes Sarah Alexandra Marks, Louis James, Tiffany Hannam-Daniels, Sophia Eleni, Danny Rahim, Tyler Winchcombe, and Sarah T. Cohen. The film’s VFX is led by Giordano Aita, with international sales handled by REinvent, who will unveil the first footage at this year’s Cannes Film Festival.
Howard J. Ford commented: “I’ve always been intrigued with caves and caverns and imagined if something lurked down there in the depths, so I am very excited to be making a creature-feature and reuniting with the REinvent team and not least working with the legendary Mr. John Rhys-Davies, who has been an absolute blast.”
'BONE KEEPER' marks Ford’s return to the horror genre, following previous successes including The Dead 1 & 2, Never Let Go, and Darkgame.
