Luke Sparke's One-Shot Apocalypse Horror SCURRY Comes to North American VOD October 3: "Signature Entertainment has announced the official North American release of Luke Sparke's one-shot apocalypse horror Scurry. Fresh off the release of Sparke's dinosaur war epic Primitive War, Scurry debuts on digital platforms October 3, coinciding with a limited theatrical run. The film premiered at the 2024 Sydney Film Festival, where it treated audiences to a pair of strangers attempting to survive a swarm of monstrous, genetically altered creatures underneath a crumbling city.
Sparke made his directorial debut with Red Billabong (2016) but gained widespread recognition with Occupation (2018) and its sequel Occupation: Rainfall (2020), which depict an alien invasion in Australia. His storytelling is heavily influenced by classic American sci-fi films of the '80s and '90s, but has incorporated uniquely Australian settings and themes.
Sparke then tackled a crime-noir film, Bring Him To Me, starring Barry Pepper, Rachel Griffiths and Sam Neill. He recently released his dinosaur war epic Primitive War.
The cast is anchored by Jamie Costa, reuniting with Sparke and writer Tom Evans following Bring Him to Me and singer/songwriter/actress Emalia, who rose to fame on the musical drama "Paper Dolls".
Beginning October 3, audiences across North America will be able to rent or own Scurry on Digital HD, including Apple TV, Prime Video, and Fandango at Home."

Co-writer Michael Alan Herman writes, “We have always been deeply inspired by the unnerving feeling of liminal spaces; they seem to be both comforting and deeply unsettling at the same time, and we set out to make a show that gives you that spine-crawling sensation.” The podcast stars Isaac Jay (Head Count, Lessons in Chemistry), Daniel Santillana (Silvertongues), and Jeannine Thompson (Star Trek: Horizon).
Director and co-writer Josie Eli Herman adds, “Against this intriguing backdrop of horror, sci-fi, and mystery, the characters are the true centerpiece of the show. The actors of Liminal have some of the best performances we’ve featured in the VoidVerse to date.”
