Renegade Motion Pictures has acquired the rights to the popular zombie novel AUTUMN. Production begins the summer of 2007 and Renegade has decided to sell 25% of the movie to the fans with investments starting at $20. AUTUMN, by David Moody is the first in a series of novels about a post-apocalyptic world following a sudden viral epidemic. The series has developed a cult following on the internet and Renegade wants to give the already established fans and the future fans a chance to own part of the film, which will also include part of the film’s future profits.

Director Steven Rumbelow explains that they are not just selling shares, “…we are selling packages that include shares, which are designed to be immense fun for the fans. With 75% of the film’s budget being financed through traditional means, we wanted to try something new, something to involve indie audiences in a new way.” He goes on to say, “Everyone involved with the production of AUTUMN is committed to the fact that this is unique and very different from your standard zombie flick. It is more about human nature and the silence following devastation rather than knocking heads off zombies. The fans of the AUTUMN books know this and I think it sets us all a little bit apart.”

Rumbelow is perhaps best known for his work on the paranormal series BEYOND, which is currently airing on the Space Channel in Canada.He has an extensive career with over 200 productions that includesseveral award-winning British feature films, about 100 music videos and his theatre work in London, New York and Chicago. He is no stranger to horror in his work as he has directed many dark and twisted adaptations of Shakespeare, James Joyce, Dostoyevsky, Stanislaw Lem (SOLARIS) and many other iconic writers in history. “The key to the atmosphere of AUTUMN is to stress the sheer psychological terror surrounding this new apocalyptic world. Zombies are only part of it. True fear resides deep within the human psyche.”

Incentives for investors include things likedinner with selected cast and crew or a private screening for the investor and 20 of their family and friends, again, with selected cast and crew. There is also a Party Package that gives the investor access to wrap parties and other events. Other packages include inscribed Diesel Time pieces or inscribed leather Converse. For any serious fan, these packages are great fun.
