The Incident, directed by Alexandre Courtès, is now Asylum Blackout

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

Less than a month away from the film’s premiere seems like a tad late to change its title, but there you have it – Alexandre Courtès’ thriller previously known as THE INCIDENT has been officially renamed ASYLUM BLACKOUT.

George, Max, and Ricky are in a rock band and waiting for their big breakthrough. Between small gigs and rehearsals they work in the kitchen of a high-security asylum for good pay at minimum risk — they have no physical contact with the inmates. One night just before dinnertime, a big storm shuts down the security system, the doors open, and the lunatics break loose. Help is on its way and should soon arrive … they just have to survive until it does.

ASYLUM BLACKOUT stars Dave Legen, Rupert Evans, Kenny Doughty, Anna Skellern and Richard Brake. The movie is set for a limited theatrical release on May 4th.
