Des Moines’ Landmark On The Sound Serves As Movie Set

The Seattle Times has a great photo gallery of pics taken during the recent filming of a science fiction film called “The Penitent Man,” which was shot at Des Moines’ Landmark on the Sound.

The film is a science fiction drama that stars actor Lance Henrikson, who played the android in “Alien,” as well as being featured in around 169 other movies. It is scheduled to premiere in Seattle sometime in 2010.

The production is a locally funded, directed and produced major independent film, and Mike Boydstun, the Director of Photography, is an old friend and co-worker of WLB Publisher/Editor Scott Schaefer from KING-TV’s “Almost Live!”

The film is Directed by Nicholas Gyeney, who also c-wrote it along with Trevor Tillman, along with a crew of at least 20.
