La ultima pelicula

Raya Martin (“Indepencia”) and Mark Peranson (“Waiting for Sancho”) are co-directing “La Ultima Pelicula,” a film that begins principal photography Dec. 16 in Yucatán, Mexico. The pair also wrote the screenplay for the film. 　　 　　The fiction-documentary hybrid takes place in the context of the pending Mayan Apocalypse, when a filmmaker and his guide traverse the Mexican countryside with the goal of making the last movie, a contemporary update of the acid Western. Alex Ross Perry, Gabino Rodriguez and Iazua Larios star in the project, which takes inspiration from the myths of the American West constructed by filmmakers Sam Peckinpah, Monte Hellman and Dennis Hopper.
