Irish filmmakers release supernatural comedy Kung Fu Deadly after decades of development
Irish directors Fergal Costello and Paddy McDonald released the film Kung Fu Deadly at genre festivals this year following over twenty years of production.
Dublin exterminators fight supernatural evil
The movie follows two hapless exterminators named Danny and Frank who are called upon to combat a supernatural threat. The characters are played by Steven He and Michael Tient in Dublin.
Festivals give the film warm reception
Audiences at Austin's Fantastic Fest and Spain's Sitges Film Festival received the film warmly. A wider distribution plan is scheduled to begin this spring.
Visual style reflects character journey
Director Fergal Costello described the visual language as a primary color covered in grime that reflects the protagonist's internal depth. Cinematographer Shing-Fung Cheung worked with Costello to create this fantastical slacker tale.
