Cunningham heats up with 'Centigrade'

FRIDAY, AUGUST 29 (ACTORS)

"Major Davis" actor Colin Cunningham updates GateWorld on his current film project, "Centigrade."


A brief excerpt:

Colin Cunningham has been busy! Aside from appearances in Stargate: Continuum and television series like jPod, he has been promoting his short thriller "Centigrade," in which he writes, directs and stars.

GateWorld caught up with Cunningham at Gatecon 2008 in Vancouver, British Columbia, where he was happy to tell us about the concept and inspiration behind the film, and where he plans to take the project next.

"Centigrade, in a nutshell, is about a guy who lives in an old dilapidated, busted-up trailer," he told us. "There's no wheels on it. It's just laying dead in the weeds. [The owner] does a bad thing, and he wakes up in the morning and [the trailer is] rolling down the highway. It's being towed by a big, black pickup truck..."

Stay with GateWorld for more updates surrounding "Centigrade" in the coming months. Be sure to visit the official movie Web site, and Cunningham's blog, at CentigradeTheMovie.com!

Centigrade is about a man (Colin Cunningham) who lives in an old, busted up camper trailer. But wakes up one morning to find himself (and it) rolling down the highway. Towed by a mysterious black pick-up truck, the man is taken hostage aboard this rolling nightmare and will have to use his wits in order to survive.
