Hannover Goes on Monster-Quest with Sci-Fi Thriller, "Primate"
28 Marzo 2012 - 8:49PM
Hannover House, Inc., the rebranded corporate name for Target
Development Group, Inc., (Pink Sheets: TDGI), has acquired the
exclusive, worldwide production rights to "Primate," a sci-fi
thriller about a cryptozoological creature that terrorizes a team
of Bigfoot researchers. The property was written by Andrew
Sands ("Airspeed", "Beyond Loch Ness") and is planned for a USA
production in September.
"We have been tracking this project for several years," said
Eric Parkinson, C.E.O. of Hannover House. "Andrew has crafted
a terrifying thriller that combines the suspense of 'Alien' with
the legend of Bigfoot. We think the potential market for the
film transcends the normal expectation for monster and creature
features, and reaches into a mainstream audience. We're very
pleased to be working with Andrew on bringing his film to life," he
continued.
Although story and plot details have been intentionally
quarantined, Hannover House reports that "Primate" suggests that
the creatures may be part of a surviving tribe of Gigantopithecus
hominoids. This early primate, currently known only through
fossil findings, towered over 8-feet in height, and has been pegged
as a possible identity for the legendary Bigfoot sightings.
Interest in Bigfoot and the field of cryptozoology has exploded
in recent years, due in part to the successful Animal Planet cable
series "Finding Bigfoot" as well as features such as the Hannover
House video hit, "Boggy Creek: The Legend is True." The
Hannover House video, directed by Brian T. Jaynes ("Humans Vs.
Zombies") has exploded into a major sell-thru video hit, and has
stimulated the company's interest in similarly themed films.
Hannover House said that production financing for "Primate" will
be obtained through state tax incentives, private investment
capital and the use of production equipment and vehicles owned by
Hannover House. Tim Ellis of Hannover House has been pegged
as Executive in charge of Production for the film. No
director or cast members have been announced at this time.
In addition to "Primate," Hannover House has been active in
other production endeavors. The company has been developing a
3-D animated feature, based on the "Terminator" franchise, as well
as several unannounced major feature projects. The English
language adaptation of "Toys in the Attic" is in final post, and is
expected to receive a significant theatrical launch this
summer. Hannover House has recently ramped up its release
activities in the DVD, Blu-Ray and VOD markets, and is pursuing
these and other original productions to provide major, "locomotive"
level releases to its overall slate.
