FARPOINT DISTRIBUTION PICKS UP FIRST U.S. SERIES FROM CALIFORNIA-BASED PRODUCTION COMPANY
(WINNIPEG, MB) May 27, 2021 – Farpoint Distribution announced today that they have picked up a new true crime series, Shoot To Kill, from Chris Pownall and his US-based production company, Shot In The Dark Productions.
Farpoint Films is co-producing with Shot In The Dark Productions 26, one-hour episodes of the true crime series for the True Crime Network (TCN) in the US. Cruise Ship Killers from Farpoint Films is currently airing on TCN.
Shoot To Kill is a true crime series that explores murder committed using the world's deadliest weapons: guns.
“We are very excited to bring this project from Chris Pownall to Farpoint Distribution,” said Farpoint Films executive producer, Kyle Bornais. “We feel this compelling show will appeal to viewers of true crime and the science behind it.”
Each episode presents one story of murder by way of the gun. These stories are presented using gripping interviews, dramatic re-enactments and archival footage. Gun experts, psychologists and former law enforcement officers tell these stories and help the view understand the psychology behind the crime.
Actual police crime scene and interrogation footage provide further insight into the murders, and forensic experts explain the particular gun used in each shooting and the science behind matching bullets found at the crime scene with that gun.
Every episode explains the forensics that were used to convict the killer(s) as well as dig into their psychological profile.
