Warrior Entertainment resurrects "The Third Society", finds "Salvation".

Warrior Entertainment recently signed a deal with MultiVisionnaire Pictures to represent J.A. Steel’s debut feature film “The Third Society” for all media outside the United States. The “The Third Society” plot focuses on a female cop, Jones, who has 24 hours to save her sister from the Asian Mafia. Released in 2003 to international success, “The Third Society” has won Steel numerous accolades for both her filmmaking and her ability to put together an award winning soundtrack. The film stars Sonya Eddy (“Seinfeld”), Russell Brown (“The Amazing Race”), and Charles Shen (“Nip/Tuck”).

MultiVisionnaire Pictures will be at the American Film Market in Santa Monica, California October 31st to November 7, 2007. Steel will be in attendance from Thursday November 1st through Sunday, November 4th.

Steel’s second feature, “Salvation” premiered at the Fright Night Film Festival in Louisville, Kentucky on August 19th. “Salvation” won its first award as Steel took home an Honorable Mention for her efforts. On September 15th, “Salvation” made its international debut in Varaždin, Croatia at the Trash Film Festival with a nomination in the Best Science Fiction Film category. “Salvation: The Trailer” took home a Silver Medal at the 2007 Park City Film Music Festival for Best Use of Music in a Short with honors going to composer Dan Radlauer and Zakky Nova of the band 4Saken1. Like “The Third Society” Steel directed the film and its action sequences but also wrote, produced, and had a supporting role acting in the movie. Steel co-edited “Salvation” with Emmy Nominated Editor Joe Gressis.

Filmed entirely in Oklahoma, “Salvation” opens with the murder of the Knights Templar in 1307 by the Catholic Church for heresy. The souls of two of the Knights burned at the stake, Malchezidek (Ben Bayless) and Gabriel (J.A. Steel) are condemned to continue the heavenly battle between good and evil, fighting for the souls of men. Seeking to end her existence in Purgatory and find Redemption, Gabriel saves murdered eight-year-old Michaela (Alyssa Wilson) and hides her away in a small Midwest town run by Sheriff Dade (Glen Jensen).

Several years pass when Michaela (Heather Surdukan) confronts the Biker Gang that killed her, led by Billy Bedlam (Devon Brewster). Sheriff Dade suddenly has a string of unexplained murders that all lead to Michaela as the killer. Michaela must choose sides in the heavenly battle between Malchezidek and Gabriel and her own existence in Purgatory forever.

Steel’s latest endeavor, another sci-fi action feature entitled “Operation Overlord” is currently in development. Steel plans to begin shooting in the early Summer of 2008 with the film to be released in early 2009.
