We brought you an exclusive clip from IF A TREE FALLS back in December. Now, we’re happy to announce that the flick has found distribution in its native Canada, where it will hit DVD and Blu-ray this summer. Details will be announced at the end of the month at Shock Stock in Ontario, where the picture will screen. U.S. and European release dates are expected to follow.
To go along with the good news, the final poster for the film has been released. Check out the cool, grindhouse-style throwback below.
The Black Fawn Films production is directed by Philip Carrer. Ryan Barrett penned the script and also stars alongside Jennifer De Lucia, Breanne teBoekhorst and Daniel Zuccala. Here is the synopsis:
In Canada, about eight percent of all homicide incidents are murder-suicides. Ninety percent of murder-suicides were family-related.
Brad, Will, Nessa and Lisa are four lifelong family friends in their twenties, who set out to cross Eastern Canada for a family reunion through the scenic countryside. On a blistering hot summer day, the trouble begins when they find an appealing place to stop for the night. The group thinks they have found the perfect haven, when they are awakened by strange noises in the forest.
What ensues is a violent disturbance by six masked assailants; without motive, without reason. The group finds themselves living in a night of psychological games and physical terror. As morning dawns, the reality of what will come is more terrifying than anything the group could have imagined.
