Writer-Director Harley Wallen’s Scifi Thriller ‘Abeyance’ Begins Filming

The sci-fi thriller Abeyance has now begun filming in Pontiac, Michigan. This action-filled film has an all-star ensemble cast that includes Scout Taylor-Compton (The Runaways, Rob Zombie’s Halloween and Halloween 2), Richard Tyson (Kindergarten Cop, Black Hawk Down, Something About Mary), Billy Wirth (The Lost Boys, Boys on the Side, Body Snatchers), Mel Novak (Bruce Lee’s Game of Death, An Eye for An Eye opposite Chuck Norris, Steve McQueen: American Icon with Mel Gibson), and Yan Birch (Wes Craven’s The People Under the Stairs, Death House, Bless the Child). Vida Ghaffari (The Mindy Project, the upcoming Nation’s Fire), Shane Hagedorn (Wild Faith), and Calhoun Koenig (Moving Parts) also star.
Martial arts champion and award-winning actor-writer-director Harley Wallen not only writes and directs this compelling film, he also stars in it.
In this story, “we follow Corey (Damien Chinappi), a troubled and suicidal military veteran who stumbles across a kidnapping with great scientific implications and alongside his unlikely “partner in crime” a prostitute named Stephanie (Kaiti Wallen), they decide to try to help a young girl, Miranda (Angelina Danielle Cama), who got away. They enter a world far more complex, cutthroat and dangerous than they could ever imagine.”
Wallen of Painted Creek Productions and his production partners Nancy Oeswein, Kaiti Wallen, Annette Cama, and Nick Sarelli are excited to show their own take on the morality issues as science allows us to “Play God” and the implications of the decisions and the temptations we face when we do.”
