THE LAST GASP

Update!

We have filmed 90% of 'The Last Gasp'.

The Last Gasp is classic Film Noir.

Set in 1950's Philadelphia, it follows the tribulations of Chester Patton, an easygoing salesman for a glass manufacturing company who makes one small mistake and watches his whole life tumble out of control. The trigger for this unpredictable downward spiral of events is a nice juicy steak, and if you know Film Noir, you'll know that happy endings are as rare as Chester's dinner. All the classic characters are present - the Voiceover, the Femme Fatale, the Gnarled Detective, the Best Friend's Wife, the Patsy, and especially Lady Luck (or Lady Bad Luck, as it turns out) - and woven together in an original short story that could have come straight from the fevered brains of the Coen Brothers, had they been born a generation earlier. As writer and director, Dan Slater will conjure this thriller - a combination of whodunnit, revenge quest, and disaster move - from his own fevered brain.
