I’ve been hearing great things about THE LOVED ONES ever since it made a splash at last year’s Toronto International Film Festival, where it won the “Midnight Madness” award. There’s still no distribution news, unfortunately, but we do finally have a look at the trailer. Check it out below! (You should also check out this clip from the flick that we put up in May).
Brent (Xavier Samuel from TWILIGHT: ECLIPSE) never recovered from the car crash that killed his father: the crash that he was responsible for. His only solace is his loving girlfriend Holly (Victoria Thaine). But there’s another girl who yearns to comfort Brent, the quietest girl in school, Lola (Robin McLeavy), and when he turns down her invitation to the end of year dance he enters a nightmare beyond imagining.
Hours before the dance, Brent is abducted and taken to Lola’s home by her demented Daddy (John Brumpton) who’s determined to make his princess’ dream come true.
Now imprisoned in Lola’s home Brent discovers that her feelings for him aren’t the only thing she’s been keeping a secret, and that he must summon every ounce of will he possesses if he is to survive and prevent Lola and her father from extending her revenge to those he loves most.
If this gets picked up for distribution, we’ll be sure to let y’all know!
