Timo Rose's BARRICADE: Unrelenting horror to make you soil your pants!

Barricade is an action-horror film that tells the tale of three friends whose weekend camping trip to The Black Forest of Germany becomes a thrilling quest for survival when they run afoul a grotesque family of murderous, cannibalistic mountain people. Ted Geoghegan, Chief Operating Officer of Starving Kappa Pictures, Ltd., said: "Barricade is an unrelenting, violent journey into depravity and I simply cannot picture anyone but Timo [Rose] handling the material. Given the current gore-heavy horror market, this is a perfect time for one of Rose’s barbaric, blood-drenched projects to make its way into the international market."

A special effects-laden tale of survival horror, the production will break new ground for director Rose by becoming his first film released worldwide on DVD - projected for first quarter, 2007.

Based on a concept by Timo Rose, Barricade stars Raine Brown (Satan’s Playground), Joseph Zaso (Nikos), André Reissig (Lord of the Undead), Thomas Kercmar (Germaica - Ouzo, Stoff und Taschentücher), Manoush (Amelie), Andreas Pape (Das Unbezähmbare Herz), and Timo Rose, whose casting was previously announced.

The English-language screenplay is written by Rose and Ted Geoghegan (Demoniuim, Nikos). The producers are Rose, Geoghegan, Joseph Zaso and John Orth. Barricade’s original score is composed by John Roome, who has scored John Carpenter’s episode of Masters of Horror, Cigarette Burns.

Rosecalypse SFX is executing special effects make-up, gore, and digital effects under the direction of supervisor Timo Rose. Additional special visual effects were created under the direction of visual effects supervisor Olaf Ittenbach (Bloodrayne, aPostal). The director of photography is Mathias Jakubski (The Legend of Moonlight Mountain) and the head of Barricade’s advertising team is Jason Beam.
