Trailer released for Tom Paton’s The Raid meets Lovecraft film Black Site

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Last year, writer/director Tom Paton brought us the "John Carpenter meets PREDATOR" film PANDORICA, and now a trailer has arrived online for his latest project, which is described as "H.P. Lovecraft meets THE RAID". The title of that intriguing combo is BLACK SITE, and the film tells the story of 

Ren Reid, orphaned as a child when a member of an ancient race known as The Elder Gods killed her parents. Twenty years have passed and a fractured Ren now works for Artemis, an organization set up to contain and then deport these entities back to where they came from. When the Elder God responsible for Ren’s childhood tragedy is caught and brought to The Black Site for deportation, Ren must partner with an unlikely ally as the last line of defense against a wave of worshippers hell bent on releasing their deity back into the world. With the facility on lockdown and the enemy closing in, Ren has just hours to avenge her parents and prove once and for all that she is worthy of wearing the Artemis uniform.

Samantha Schnitzler and Mike Beckingham (who happens to be Simon Pegg's brother) star.

Screen Anarchy got the official first look at BLACK SITE's trailer, which can be seen below. As they pointed out, there aren't quite as many people getting pummeled in this trailer as there was in THE RAID, but this combination of martial artists and elder gods can be entertaining even if there are less asses being kicked.

BLACK SITE is expected to be released sometime in 2018. 2018 will also see the release of Paton's vampire film REDWOOD.
