Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A PSYCHOLOGICAL thriller set in the small fictional beachside town of The Dunes on the Mornington Peninsula is being made by Martin Copping, who grew up here but now lives and works in the film industry in the US. The film, now in its final production stages, follows Los Angeles journalist Nicholas Rice who returns home to settle some family issues and sell property. While he’s here, a “mysterious figure from his past re-emerges and threatens his entire existence”. Copping promotes the story as a “cautionary tale: people need to face up to their problems and not run away from them”. The actor, producer and director said he had shot The Dunes “well under budget”. Continued Page 14

day charged with similar offences from the same incident. A third man is still at large. The charges follow an alleged roadrage attack at Rosebud early Thursday (1 March) in which two teenagers say they were rammed by a four-wheeldrive and robbed. The pair, aged 18 and 17, told police a maroon 1999 Toyota four-wheeldrive was “deliberately” driven into
their red Commodore in Waterfall Gully Road. After being forced off the road, the teenagers said, they were chased by three men they thought were from the Toyota who then allegedly stole their car, wallets and power tools. Their car was later found burnt-out in the car park at Gunnamatta beach, off Truemans Road, Rye. Detective Sergeant Peter Drake, of
