“Bronzi is back!” The first official trailer has been released for ESCAPE FROM DEATH
BLOCK 13, the new prison action feature starring Robert Bronzi (DEATH KISS), Nicholas

Gary Jones (AXE GIANT: THE WRATH OF PAUL BUNYAN, XENA) directs from his
screenplay. Mosquito Entertainment, Millman Productions, and Ron Lee Productions are the
production companies. Octane Entertainment is handling foreign sales. The filmmakers are
courting domestic offers.
ESCAPE FROM DEATH BLOCK 13 concerns a wrongfully convicted man who discovers
sinister goings-on at a maximum security prison and must break out to expose the corruption and
get revenge on those who put him there. The movie shot recently at the notorious Ohio State
Reformatory, where such movies as THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION and ESCAPE PLAN 3
also filmed.

tough and well-known action star of the ’60s-’90s.

Lyindaa Russell, and Justin Hawkins.
The film is produced by Jones and Philip R. Garrett. Jeff Miller (DEATH KISS,

Producers. George J. Merino and Kathleen Jones are Co-Producers. Chris Hahn is Associate
Producer. Ken Stachnik is Cinematographer. David H. Greathouse and Beki Ingram handle
makeup FX. David Kirst is Production Coordinator.
