'Jesus Cop' is a grindhouse horror-comedy feature that prominently features Al Jourgensen from the band Ministry alongside Bill Manspeaker of Green Jellö. The film combines practical effects with a soundtrack from the Grammy-nominated Green Jellö, aiming to deliver a high-energy experience for fans of extreme and cult cinema genres.
The story is set in a violent and surreal world where themes of immortality, serial killers, and terminal illness intersect. Jourgensen plays Kane, while Manspeaker takes on the role of the Pope, contributing to the film's chaotic and irreverent atmosphere by mixing gore, comedy, and punk-metal influences.
The production is nearly complete, with roughly 90% of filming and editing done. The project requires approximately 30,000 CAD to finish the last scene and post-production processes, offering various forms of credit and compensation to funders.
The plot follows a man grappling with the mental toll of immortality as he pursues a pair of hitmen turned serial killers involved in a murder-suicide pact. He is aided by Mary, a terminally ill teenager seeking thrills, as he attempts to recover his lost memories.
Director and writer Rob Gabriele notes that while the film addresses serious issues such as trauma, suicide, and isolation, it also maintains a tone that keeps viewers engaged with suspense, dark humor, and intense moments designed to provoke strong reactions.
