You may remember back at the beginning of November, when Jake showed you all a trailer for Jesse Holland and Andy Milton’s YELLOWBRICKROAD. Well since then the flick’s been accepted in Sundance!
And to celebrate three new stills from the film have popped up online today. While the stills aren’t anything exciting they’re worth checking out if you’re interested in YELLOWBRICKROAD. Check out those stills above and below. I’ve also thrown the trailer for YELLOWBRICKROAD up below, so be sure to check that out too if you haven’t yet.
One Morning in New England, 1940, when the entire population of Friar New Hampshire – 572 people – walked together up a winding mountain trail and into the wilderness. They left behind their clothes, their money, all of their essentials. Even their dogs were abandoned, tied to posts and left to starve. No One knows why. A search party dispatched by the U.S. Army eventually discovered the remains of nearly 300 of Friar’s evacuees. Many had frozen to death. Others were cruelly and mysteriously slaughtered. The bodies of the remaining citizens are still unaccounted for.
Over the years, a quiet cover-up operation managed to weave the story of Friar into the stuff of legends and backwoods fairy tales. The town has slowly repopulated, but the vast wilderness is mostly untracked, with the northern-most stretches off limits to local hunters and loggers. In 2008, the coordinates for the “YELLOWBRICKROAD” trail head were declassified. The first official expedition into a dark and twisted wilderness will attempt to solve the mystery of the lost citizens of Friar…and reach the end of the trail.
There’s the synopsis for YELLOWBRICKROAD, which stars Cassidy Freeman, Clark Freeman, Anessa Ramsey, Lee Wilkof, Laura Heisler, Alex Draper, Tara Giordano, Michael Laurino and Sam Elmore.
