The eagerly awaited underground horror movie from Christopher Bickel, “Pater Noster and the Mission of Light,” enters its final stages of post-production with an anticipated release in Autumn 2024.
“Pater Noster and the Mission of Light” is the brainchild of the adventurous underground director whose previously acclaimed works “The Theta Girl” (2017) and ”Bad Girls” (2022) have sent shockwaves through the underground film community. With an acclaimed track record of unsettling and thought-provoking films, Bickel is poised to take audiences on a nightmarish lysergic hellride that will linger long after the credits roll.
The film tells the story of Max, a young record store clerk who stumbles upon a rare vinyl LP and is drawn into the world of a 1970s hippie commune. An invitation to the remnants of the outlandish cult and their unholy spawn leads to grave and grisly circumstances for Max and her friends.
The film’s producers have pulled off a no-budget coup in bringing this grim vision to life, with a team of award-winning practical special effects artists and a hauntingly atmospheric score that will immerse audiences in a world of relentlessly trippy terror.
While one single name on half the credits is generally considered something less than a “trademark of quality,” Writer/Director/Producer/Cinematographer/Editor Christopher Bickel claims to be an “auteur out of financial necessity.”
“We make underground films with very little money for the love of the art. This is literally my back yard we’re shooting in. Everything we do is like the Little Rascals putting on a show for the neighborhood kids. That’s not to say that we don’t take great pains to make our products the best possible quality with the resources we have. Everything I know about filmmaking, I learned from punk rock. The movies we make are punk rock demo tapes. We operate outside of Hollywood focus groups and traditional distribution routes.”
Bickel’s CV includes stints as a columnist for MaximumRockNRoll magazine and Dangerous Minds. He was also singer in the punk bands In/Humanity and Guyana Punch Line, as well as the brains behind prolific avant garde recording project Anakrid. His two previous feature films are distributed world-wide and have received wide critical acclaim.
As “Pater Noster and the Mission of Light” enters the final stages of post-production, fans are eagerly anticipating its release, propelling a successful crowd-funding campaign (https://www.paternostermovie.com/ ) as well as a grass-roots promotional campaign centered around the advance release of the film’s soundtrack. The crowdfunding campaign reached its goal within 4 days of launch.
An entire album’s worth of songs were written and recorded for the film to play the part of the Cult’s immersive psychedelic head-music. This music will be released as both a double LP record set and as a 5.1 surround audio disc accompanying the Blu Ray release of the film. The album features sax work by Tim Cappello, the iconic “sexy sax man” from “The Lost Boys” (who also stars in the film) as well as remixes by Andrew Liles of Nurse With Wound.
