It’s not often that we’re treated with first set photos after witnessing the trailer for a flick, but such is the case with Julien Magnat’s French-Canadian horror thriller FACES IN THE CROWD. Not that I’m grousing, mind you, ‘cause anytime we get a chance to see one of the most radiant beings in the industry, we’re all over it. You want it, you got it…it’s f*ckin’ Milla time!
Written by Magnat himself, FACES IN THE CROWD follows:
A serial killer who has been terrorizing the city. An innocent bystander witnesses his latest attack, but while fleeing, she falls from a bridge and is knocked unconscious. When she awakes in the hospital, she can”t recognize family, her boyfriend or even her own face in the mirror. She is diagnosed with prosopagnosia, or ”face blindness”. This is a real neurological disorder, like dyslexia but with faces, caused by a lesion of the temporal lobe, the part of the brain that allows us in a heartbeat to compare someone”s face with all the faces stored in our memory.
She is incapable of recognizing the same face twice. Every time she looks at someone, it’s like she’s never met them before. Being the only witness, she is hunted by the killer, leaving her paranoid in a sea of unfamiliar faces. Where can she turn? Who can she trust? Who is she waking up next to? Who is standing next to her? This suspense thriller takes us on a terrifying ride thru the blurry eyes of a woman searching for a monster amongst the faces in the crowd.
Julian McMahon, Sarah Wayne Callies, Michael Shanks, Sandrine Holt, Marianne Faithful, Valentina Vargas, Adam Harrington, Anthony Lemke and Sebastien Roberts also star in the film.
