The acquisition onslaught continues at AFM this week, and it looks like IFC Midnight is bolstering it’s already impressive lineup of genre titles. A few hours ago we learned the exhibition eave landed rights to Michael Greenspan’s WRECKED, and now we know they’ve scooped U.S. rights to Marcus Graves’ psychological thriller CHOOSE. Lesson learned? Can’t f*ck with monosyllabic horror!
With an impressive ensemble that includes Katheryn Winnick (below), Bruce Dern, Kevin Pollack, Nicholas Tucci, Richard Short and Talia Balsam – CHOOSE finds:
The peace and tranquility of an idyllic, suburban city become suddenly broken. Behind the picket fence and manicured lawn, teenage Sara awakens startled as a rush of cold air gently pushes her bedroom door open. Across the hall her parent’s bedroom door lies ajar. She calls for her parents but gets no response. She enters their bedroom and as her eyes adjust to the darkness she sees her parents on the bed hog-tied and gagged. Before she can react she is grabbed roughly by the hair and slammed against the wall. “Do what I say or you die” Scar Lip tells her.
He turns over an expertly crafted hourglass filled with blood and coolly instructs her, “I’m going to kill your mother or your father. You have sixty seconds to decide which one.” She begs and pleads with him, but all Scar Lip tells her is that if she doesn’t choose then both parents die. And this is just the opening sequence of the chilling horror Choose.
Kaye Nauta, Adrian Martinez, Billy Kay, Alexi Wasser, Annalaina Marks, Cady Huffman and Klavida Ramnareine also star.
No word on a release date yet, but with that cast intact…it’s one you’ll wanna stick around for.
