The next time you think your life is going badly just stop and ponder a moment on a man named Ian. He is a typical American male who is hotly pursued and brutally murdered – every single day of his life, only to reawaken into a whole different life and then go through the horrifying experience over and over and over again.

That is the premise behind director Dario Piana’s “The Deaths of Ian,” an indie horror/suspense film that will be produced by Stan Winston, Brian Gilbert and Odyssey Entertainment. The script has been written by Brendan Hood (They) and begins shooting on the Isle of Man this summer.
