From The Press Release

Almost Mercy was written by B. Dolan and Tom DeNucci. Producer Chad Verdi tapped DeNucci to direct and produce. Sam Eilertsen will be the director of photography. The film tells the tale of a quaint little town with a dark secret. We focus on two outcasts, Jackson and Emily, victims of the town's seedy underbelly. Ticking time bombs, they are seeking revenge. It's a race to see who will unravel first. Dealing with issues that are far too common in our society, the film focuses on a new breed of terror. A fear that is now closer to home than ever imagined.

The film stars Kane Hodder (Jason X, Monster, Hatchet), best known for his portrayal of Jason Voorhees in the Friday the 13th franchise, who will play Coach Elwood, a seedy, overly aggressive gym teacher, driven by self-help books and his obsession with inflicting mental pain on his students. The great Bill Moseley (The Devil's Rejects, Night of the Living Dead, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2) will play Pastor Johnson, an overzealous preacher, who's got the whole town fooled.

Verdi stated, "Tom DeNucci has directed two great films for us, and we expect that he will repeat this again." Verdi added, "DeNucci was elevated to producer on this feature film because of all his hard work and dedication to the project. I am very happy that the flowing producers and ex-producers will be joining Tommy and I in association with LDI unlimited, David Gere, David Lussier as producers and Sherry Lussier, Michael Cole, Taylor Van Zant, Seth Rosenblit with Michelle Verdi as executive producer and music supervisor."
