Klaus: The Devil's Primate is a 2014 British film written and directed by Sunderland-based writer/director Steven Noel Sibley. The film stars Colin Cuthbert as Joe Sinclair, a mercenary leading a team of hunters and a ninja in a bid to kill the creature that wounded him several years earlier; Sarah Boulter as Kate Whitman, a girl who has a special bond with Klaus and may unwittingly provide the basis for his capture and Liam Olsen as Scott the leader of a group of scientists who become ensnared by an angry Klaus. The 70 minute feature film premiered August 17, 2014.[1]
Production[edit]
Klaus: The Devil's Primate took over eight years to produce. The original plot based the action around an 'abandoned college' that was the base of a scientist bent on making Klaus a 'killing machine' for evil purposes. Klaus, once captured by the scientist, breaks free from the secret laboratory and slaughters several young students of the soon to be abandoned college. The final cut runs to 70 minutes and features the original scenes as 'flashback'. Those flashback 'abandoned college' scenes were shot in the Lipman Building of Northumbria University in 2006, while the main scenes of the 2014 film were shot on location in Jesmond Dene, all in Newcastle upon Tyne.[1]
Plot[edit]
Falklands veteran Joe Sinclair (Colin Cuthbert) is a survivor of a massacre that led to the death of several young college students - including his own nephew. Several years later he enlists the help of renowned hunters, criminals and a ninja to help him track and kill the genetically modified bonobo that caused the massacre. Named Klaus, the ape holds a grudge against humans for his mistreatment as an infant at the hands of an evil geneticist. Sinclair kidnaps Kate (Sarah Boulter), the daughter of the scientist (Liam Olsen) who essentially 'created' Klaus, from a lunatic asylum in a bid to use her knowledge of the ape to lure Klaus from his forest lair. While the group enter the forest lair of Klaus, a small group of biologists (led by the scientist) unwittingly stumble upon the same forest and the fight for survival begins.
