November 3, 2019 by Gary Collinson

Richard Tyson (Kindergarten Cop) and Harley Wallen (Eternal Code) have been cast alongside Primetime Emmy nominee Naomi Grossman (American Horror Story) as well as legendary action stars Vernon Wells (Commando) and Mel Novak (Game of Death) for ThunderKnight Entertainment LTD and AEC Studios’ indie horror drama film The Initiation. Check out the new artwork here…

Jimmy Drain headlines the ensemble cast as Professor Daniel Kimmer of St. Elzears College, who has come to terms that his marriage with wife Jaime (Meggie Maddock) is ending.  This, combined with the growing epidemic of a scandalous on campus “faculty to student relations” threatens to expose a love affair with one of his own ex student’s, the alluring Starr Bramlett (Lauren Mayhew).

Daniel uncovers that Starr is a member of a secret society of witches dedicated to promote feminine freedom and remove restrictions that are put upon women via religion and society.   Can Daniel save his marriage and career from this pending assault upon the college and his life?  Or will a new angel of evil be born…?

The Initiation is shooting now in Denver, Colorado, with Monique Candelaria, London Grace, Jason Potter, Mark Steven Grove, J. Michael Sterling, Audrey Walters, Denise Gurule, Hawk Younkins, Mark Bilker and the Emmy nominated rapper T.O.N.E.-Z rounding out the cast and Brian McCulley directing from a script by Drain and Ty M.C.
