Rome International Film Festival 2008

When a convicted murderer, released from prison, exacts his revenge on the attorney who prosecuted his case, the two men find themselves locked in a dangerous game as one seeks revenge and the other justice. But the lines quickly blur in this deadly game when lives are shattered in a kidnapping gone tragically wrong.

DOWN A DARK ROAD is a modern-day silent thriller that examines our very nature in our pursuit of life, liberty and happiness... vengeance. How far would you go?

Down A Dark Road was inspired by the desire to shoot a film entirely free of dialogue. “An idea that scared the hell out of me,” says director Greg Thompson, “but one that ultimately became an exciting challenge for everyone involved.”

The film was shot in 20 hours over the course of two days. “We dropped just over 16 tons of water on the set to create the rain effect,” according to co-producer Heather Gifford, “and, needless to say, we learned a lot.”
