VERY EXCITING NEWS...

Renegade has acquired the rights to the book AUTUMN by British
author, David Moody. The AUTUMN series of novels, which are set in a post-apocalyptic society following a sudden viral epidemic, has a committed and well deserved following. We feel it is probably one of the most compelling stories to date that deals with the psychological impact on survivors in a zombie-styled holocaust. It also redefines, in a more realistic way, the behavior of reanimated bodies and how they function and decline... and most importantly the sociological and psychological response of survivors who are left to live in a world of inactive silence... for the first few days, at least...
To read the first novel in the AUTUMN series as a FREE download, go to the Infected Books site.
Intended release of the film will be to jive with four major zombie films released in 2008 and will follow close on the heels of "Queen City Blowout", "Lost Souls" and "The Deed" as the fourth feature film from the Renegade creative factory to hit the market place within a year from Spring 2007. Compounded with the fourth season of "Beyond" airing first-run at the beginning of the year along with repeats and second markets throughout the rest of the year... 2007 is shaping up to be a landmark year for Renegade.
Keep an eye on the Renegade horizon, there is a lot more coming our way.

Michael Macina died at age 55 in Toronto on August 5th, 2006.
Michael was an actor, writer, director, producer and academic. He was an intellectual and sharp-witted artist. Also a rebel who had a personality that most people could not resist loving. He worked in various capacities on a number of Steven Rumbelow's productions including "The Proteus Chronicles" in which he both appeared as an actor and helped make the production happen as a Co-Producer. His wry smile and astute creative intellect will be missed.

An agreement has been signed between CHUM Television and Renegade Motion Pictures for two more seasons of BEYOND to air on the Space Channel starting September 2006. Alannah Myles has signed to Renegade for the role of host. Alannah is the Canadian musician most famous for her songs "Black Velvet" and "Lover of Mine". It is envisioned that with Alannah as host and the next two seasons being produced for High Definition TV, the series will attract significant foreign interest.
Season III will focus on seeking out the truth of paranormal mysteries and Season IV will deal primarily with proving or disproving many of the Myths and Legends that have a paranormal basis.
Renegade is also pleased to announce that the Buffalo Days spot we produced for the Regina Exhibition won third place, behind San Diego and Calgary, at the Western Fairs Association 83rd annual convention and trade show.
