Indomnia Releasing has just made its second high-profile acquisition of the American Film Market; first it wrestled in Franck Richard’s THE PACK a couple days ago and now it’s made its move on OUTCAST, the Celtic monster tale from director Colm McCarthy. When we last wrote about OUTCAST, its trailer had just been unleashed and it was just about to make a splash at Frightfest in England. Now it’ll swim over to North American shores sometime next year.
Taking place in modern day Edinburgh, Scotland, OUTCAST unmasks an ancient Celtic society, where black magic exists. Mary (Kate Dickie), a witch with extraordinary strength, is on the run as she tries to protect her son, Fergal (Niall Bruton), from a dangerous hunter (James Nesbitt) assigned to kill them to hide the truth of their past.
“A crowd favorite at this year’s SXSW and Screamfest LA, Colm McCarthy’s OUTCAST presents a suspenseful twist to horror cinema,” said Jasbinder Singh Mann. “OUTCAST brings another dimension to the Indomina brand, demonstrating once again that Indomina is the premiere destination for genre based content.”
We’ll let you know when OUTCAST gets a firm release date.
