Dark Was the Night, starring Kevin Durand, set for AFM

Word is coming in that Premiere Entertainment Group has acquired the foreign sales rights for Caliber Media’s DARK WAS THE NIGHT directed by Jack Heller. The film premiered last week at ScreamFest in Los Angeles, winning Best Visual Effects and Best Special Effects, and will have its East Coast premiere on November 1st at the Film Society of Lincoln Center’s Scary Movies, New York’s top genre film festival. Kevin Durand (The Strain) and Lukas Haas (INCEPTION) headline this one as they battle with an ancient evil.

“The overwhelming reception DARK WAS THE NIGHT received at ScreamFest last week clearly shows that we have awakened our core horror audience,” said Campbell. “With its amazing cast and suspenseful plot, we’re confident international audiences will also embrace this heart-stopping horror/thriller.”

DARK WAS THE NIGHT goes like this:

It begins when a long slumbering evil is awoken in the trees outside the remote town of Maiden Woods. Isolated and threatened, it sets its sights on the townspeople, as Sheriff Paul Shields (Kevin Durand) attempts to overcome the demons of his past, so that he may protect those that he loves.

Rounding out the cast are Bianca Kajlich (Rules of Engagement), Sabina Gadecki (the ENTOURAGE movie), Heath Freeman (SKATELAND), Steve Agee and Nick Damici (LATE PHASES).
