Distributor Film Bridge International recently put up the first teaser art for Dolan’s Cadillac on their official site, as the eagle-eyed monstrosities at Quiet Earth noticed today. It’s subtle, that’s for sure, and I can’t say it really grabs the eye too well. The lack of an actual Cadillac is a bit confusing, as well.

Based on the short story by Stephen King, Dolan’s Cadillac stars Christian Slater as James Dolan, a Las Vegas mob boss who kills the wife of peaceful school teacher (Wes Bentley). After he realizes the legal system won’t help him bring Dolan to justice, he takes matters into his own hands via a very elaborate trap in the desert.

The film’s been in various stages of development for almost as long as I’ve been running a horror website, so it’s nice to finally see some real, solid proof that it will be out soon. Keep it here for more Dolan’s Cadillac updates as they roll in!

It’s taken more than a decade to get its motor running, but “Dolan’s Cadillac” has finally hit the streets of Las Vegas.

The big-screen Stephen King adaptation — about a teacher (Wes Bentley) obsessed with avenging his wife’s murder at the hands of the title mobster (Christian Slater) — is scheduled to wrap a three-day shoot Tuesday at locations ranging from the Strip to the Fremont Street Experience to the desert.

The tale (featured in King’s 1993 “Nightmares and Dreamscapes”) takes place in Las Vegas, but most of the shoot took place far north of Glitter City, in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan.

Given the project’s history, it’s amazing the shoot took place anywhere; Kevin Bacon, Sylvester Stallone, Gabriel Byrne, Dennis Hopper, Cuba Gooding Jr. and Val Kilmer are just some of the names rumored to be involved in “Dolan’s Cadillac” during the past decade.

Director dishes on Dolan’s Cadillac

Christian Slater, Wes Bentley and Jeff Beesley all have something in common. All of them have however, had a hand in filming the movie Dolan’s Cadillac in recent weeks. The movie, which has been filmed in Moose Jaw, Las Vegas and other areas of southern Saskatchewan is just finishing filming near Bethune.

Moose Jaw’s Jeff Beesley is directing the film. He says it’s been an honour to work with such a talented cast and crew including Wes Bentley and Christian Slater, who play the lead roles. “He (Christian Slater) came in for the first 12 days of production and you know there’s a reason he Christian Slater, he’s fantastic. There was a long history to this project, a lot of actors wanted to play his part Sylvester Stallone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Dennis Hopper and none of them for one reason or another could do it. So to actually see it happen and see someone like Slater do it I think audiences are really going to be satisfied with what he does”.

One month before filming was to begin in Regina on the psychological thriller Dolan’s Cadillac, director Erik Canuel and the production companies chose to part ways.

Having to replace Canuel on such short notice could have been disastrous, but Canadian director Jeff Beesley accepted the challenge of directing the film, which is based on a Stephen King short story.

Screenwriter Richard Dooling is convinced that Beesley was the right man for the job.
