Shot on 35mm film on location on Oahu Hawaii, Rain of the Furies (formerly called "the Mountain Movie") offers a classic look at a tantalizing world of fantasy & intrigue combining neo-noir undertones with a daring soundtrack to capture a fresh and emphatically cinematic look at both contemporary & timeless mortal concerns.
