May 11, 2004—London, UK

“Left for Dead” will change the pulse at this year’s Cannes festival. It’s a revenge thriller set in a cold and unrelenting city with suspicious characters with questioning motives. The theme deals with betrayal, revenge and the ultimate prize in a new fashion. UK film can now say it’s picking up where Guy Ritchie left it and taking it to a different dimension.

Left For Dead is the first UK independent martial arts feature, a true 70's styled grindhouse action film taking it's inspiration from genre classics such as Fist Of Fury, The Killer and Police Story. Williams is an assassin, betrayed and Left For Dead by his erstwhile colleagues. Kelso is a promising young kickboxer, who has his career violently cut short. Together they must team up to take down the criminal empire that hold's their city in a vice like grip.

This action thriller twister is directed by up and coming UK native Ross Boyask who is well known for his innovative and stylish short films. Ross worked with his long-time collaborator Phil Hobden of Modern Life and writer Adrian Foiadelli to create the ‘mod film style’. “Left for Dead” shows that independent filmmakers can make quality entertaining action and high paced films on a low budget just as good if not better than Tinseltown.

Stars from the film have appeared in Jackie Chan’s Accidental Spy, The Purifiers, Black Mask 2, Extreme Challenge, A Better Tomorrow 2, Danny The Dog, Distant Shadow and Pure Vengeance. The film also premieres newcomer Andy Prior as the promising protégé who gives a fresh performance to action characters. The variety of character complexes and themes make “Left for Dead” a sensor intense ride that will keep you on the edge of your seat to the end.

With the specialized look, unique plot twist and remarkable talent “Left for Dead” will definitely be the talk and the catch of Cannes.
