SYNOPSIS
David Bushell, a college student struggling with social anxiety, discovers that his roommate is a member of a mysterious underground cult. David sneaks into a meeting and discovers that the cult is on the brink of a new "Mercury Cycle," a mysterious pill-induced visit to the past. When David impulsively steals a bottle of pills in hopes of resurrecting his former happiness, he finds himself mixed up in a twisted journey that blurs the line between free will and fate. David struggles to repair his life and defy a future doomed by his own curiosity.
ABOUT THE FILM
“The Mercury Cycle” is a psychological thriller, Written/Produced by Vincent Grippi and Directed by Cody Hoerig. The film is genuine because it was produced and shot entirely while the crew was still attending classes at Quinnipiac University.
Vincent Grippi wrote “The Mercury Cycle” in the summer before his senior year of studying film at Quinnipiac University. Within the first weeks of the school year, Grippi and fellow students Cody Hoerig and Zachary Salsman, sat down and discussed the script. The three students decided that they would defy the odds and attempt to bring “The Mercury Cycle” to life as a full-length feature film. No time was wasted, and within weeks “The Mercury Cycle” had its own crew of talented and experienced students.
After 4 long months of pre-production, “The Mercury Cycle” was ready to begin shooting. Principal photography officially began on January 6th, 2009, in Westchester New York. Shooting continued through the second semester of the school year, as the crew was still attending classes. Despite the immeasurable odds they faced, the crew and cast of “The Mercury Cycle” continued production of the film. Along the way, the production managed to garner significant attention from various news outlets and crowds all over New York and New England. The film was commonly praised for its stunning professionalism in both its craft and appearance.
On June 13th 2009, “The Mercury Cycle” officially wrapped principle photography, after 6 consecutive months of shooting. The film is now well into the post-production phase and continues to rouse anticipatory praise.
