Slash-produced horror film Nothing To Fear acquired by Anchor Bay

Last Updated on July 23, 2021

We’ve told you about Slasher Films’s NOTHING TO FEAR a handful of times before, most recently in November of last year. The first flick from the newly-formed production company, co-founded by GnR guitarist Slash, is based on an actual town in Kansas, which, according to legend, is one of the seven gateways to Hell. Neat, eh?!

Anchor Bay thinks so, as the distributor has nabbed NOTHING TO FEAR, which it will release at an undetermined time. Anthony Leonardi III is directing from a screenplay written by Jonathan W.C. Mills.

“Anchor Bay is thrilled to be working with the Slasher Films team,” said Kevin Kasha, EVP Acquisitions and Co-Productions at Anchor Bay Films. “We knew we wanted to work with Slash when he announced the formation of the label back in September at Toronto, and after having read this script, we are even more excited.”

The flick’s synopsis:
When opportunity knocks, a young down-on-their-luck family packs up their home and moves halfway across the country to re-root themselves into an idyllic little town filled with hopes of a better life. What awaits them however is a tale of betrayal and evil beyond any of their worst nightmares.


Anchored around the complicated, nuanced relationship of the two teenage sisters, NOTHING TO FEAR takes sibling rivalry to a chilling new dimension of bloodlust and fear. Each of the sisters play a dangerous and frightening part of an ancient ritual that unleashes a demonic fury that will change the family forever.
