| Signature Entertainment has announced the official North American release of Luke Sparke’s one-shot apocalypse horror Scurry. Fresh off the release of Sparke’s dinosaur war epic Primitive War, Scurry debuts on digital platforms October 3, coinciding with a limited theatrical run. The film premiered at the 2024 Sydney Film Festival, where it treated audiences to a pair of strangers attempting to survive a swarm of monstrous, genetically altered creatures underneath a crumbling city.
Sparke made his directorial debut with Red Billabong (2016) but gained widespread recognition with Occupation (2018) and its sequel Occupation: Rainfall (2020), which depict an alien invasion in Australia. His storytelling is heavily influenced by classic American sci-fi films of the ’80s and ’90s, but has incorporated uniquely Australian settings and themes.
Sparke then tackled a crime-noir film, Bring Him To Me, starring Barry Pepper, Rachel Griffiths and Sam Neill. He recently released his dinosaur war epic Primitive War.
The cast is anchored by Jamie Costa, reuniting with Sparke and writer Tom Evans following Bring Hin to Me and singer/songwriter/actress Emalia, who rose to fame on the musical drama “Paper Dolls”.
Beginning October 3, audiences across North America will be able to rent or own Scurry on Digital HD, including Apple TV, Prime Video, and Fandango at Home.
