It’s kind of hard not to be a fan of director Brad Anderson. The guy has been putting out quality flicks the past few years! Stuff like SESSION 9, THE MACHINIST and TRANSSIBERIAN. Alright… so that’s basically all Anderson has put out in the past decade feature wise… but it’s some solid stuff! So what is the filmmaker working on next?
THE VANISHING ON 7TH STREET that’s what! But we already knew that, along with the fact that the film will be starring Hayden Christensen, Thandie Newton (below) and John Leguizamo. What we didn’t know was exactly what would be going down in THE VANISHING ON 7TH STREET. Well ladies and gents, we do now! IM Global just released the full synopsis for VANISHING, which reads:
In the film a mysterious and seemingly global blackout causes countless populations to simply vanish, leaving only their clothes and possessions behind. A small handful of survivors band together in a dimly-lit tavern on 7th Street, struggling to combat the apocalyptic horror. Realizing they may in fact be the last people on earth, the darkness hones in on them alone.
And if that’s not enough, the guys over at Bloody-Disgusting have a look at the title treatment! Check out a hint of it above before flicking through for the full shot.
So what do you guys think? Sounds pretty awesome to me! Brad Anderson tackling vicious apocalyptic horror on a seemingly small scale? Sign me up! THE VANISHING ON 7TH STREET is now in post-production so hopefully we’ll get some more updates soon! Like a release date maybe?
