Jesse Holland and Andy Milton’s mysterious thriller YELLOWBRICKROAD is a film that’s flying pretty low under the radar. We’ve told you about it before (
Unfortunately still nothing that slaps us in the face. Directly below you’ll find the new quad while the stills have been thrown up here as well. That one above is pretty f*cked though huh? It’s definitely got my attention. I’m also digging the quad. Which way to go? Hmm… Go ahead and scroll around to enjoy those.
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.
The film stars Cassidy Freeman, Clark Freeman, Anessa Ramsey, Lee Wilkof, Laura Heisler, Alex Draper, Tara Giordano, Michael Laurino and Sam Elmore. It hits Slamdance on January 23rd screening at 10 PM followed by another screening on January 25th at 3 PM, both times paired with S. Vollie Osborn’s MONSTERS DOWN THE HALL.
