About Brimstone Pictures
Brimstone Pictures is a dynamic, Canadian-based film production company dedicated to crafting bold, genre-driven cinema. With a focus on action, fantasy, horror, and thrillers, the company is committed to producing visually compelling films anchored by strong characters, striking imagery, distinctive sound production and original music design.
Founded in 2020 by Preston Ewasiuk, David Heacock, and Neil Chase, Brimstone Pictures approaches filmmaking with a clear creative philosophy: elevate character-driven stories through high-calibre production values and cinematic execution. From concept to completion, every project is guided by a commitment to strong narrative, technical excellence, and emotional resonance.
The company’s first breakout success came with the award-winning short film Boneyard Racers, a supernatural adventure inspired by classic supernatural cinema. The film earned over twenty international festival awards, including Best Live Action Short (Alberta) at the Edmonton International Film Festival, and secured global distribution through ShortsTV.
Building on that momentum, Brimstone produced its debut feature film, Spin the Wheel, an ambitious apocalyptic thriller about a group of strangers forced to play Russian Roulette with the Devil for a chance to save humanity. The film has garnered more than twenty festival awards spanning performance, direction, cinematography, and Best Feature categories. It has been recognized by respected genre publications including Rue Morgue, Horror Society, and UK Film Review, and was released on major streaming platforms through Red Water Entertainment.
Brimstone Pictures continued its upward trajectory with the sci-fi action feature Contamination, a tense and explosive thriller following a covert black-ops team tasked with eliminating a secret research facility harboring a deadly pathogen. The film celebrated its worldwide theatrical premiere in Los Angeles in 2025 and achieved a very successful nationwide Canadian theatrical run. It has also earned 28 international film awards, further solidifying its impact on the global festival circuit. The film is now expanding its global footprint, with major streaming releases confirmed across the United States, Canada, Mexico, and the Caribbean through KDMG, as well as a major release in South Korea via Jaye Entertainment, with additional European and Asian territories currently in negotiation.
At its core, Brimstone Pictures is powered by its founding team’s multi-disciplinary expertise. Producer Preston Ewasiuk brings production leadership across on-set operations, cinematography, aerial capture, and post-production workflows. David Heacock contributes over two decades of experience as director, cinematographer, editor, writer, and composer. Neil Chase, an award-winning writer, director, and actor, brings an extensive creative portfolio spanning more than 150 international awards.
As the company continues to grow, its creative roster has expanded to include accomplished industry professionals such as Elizabeth Lavender, a seasoned performer and co-producer with extensive experience across film, television, and coaching, and S-Raj Kumar, a multi-award-winning actor and associate producer with an international body of work. Their addition further strengthens Brimstone’s commitment to excellence, diversity of talent, and collaborative storytelling.
Together, the team drives Brimstone’s creative engine — blending technical mastery, storytelling discipline, and a commitment to collaboration. The company also prides itself on building strong creative teams, drawing on a diverse pool of skilled professionals whose contributions elevate each production.
Brimstone Pictures is more than an independent production company — it is an emerging creative force committed to delivering distinctive, high-impact cinema. With a growing catalogue of acclaimed projects and a robust development slate, the company continues to push creative boundaries and deliver ambitious, character-driven stories to global audiences.
