Writer/director Jenna Mattison's THE SOUND is a project we first heard about last November, at which time it was making its way through post-production. Nine months later, the film is complete and ready for release, with distributor Samuel Goldwyn Films having scheduled it for a September 29th theatrical release.
With the release date just a month away, a trailer for the film has arrived online and can be seen below.
Starring Rose McGowan, Christopher Lloyd, Michael Eklund, Richard Gunn, Jane Moffat, Alex Braunstein, and Michael Giel, THE SOUND tells the following story:
Kelly (McGowan) is a writer and a skeptic of the supernatural. As a specialist in acoustic physics she uses low frequency tactile sound-waves to debunk reported paranormal activities for her online blog. When presented a new case of a supposedly haunted subway station Kelly sets off to uncover the truth behind the hoax that involves a 40-year-old unexplained suicide. Her investigation takes her deep into the abandoned station where her skepticism is tested. As Kelly ascends into the depths of the metro’s darkness she is confronted by an unforeseen evil. In the vastness, she must face her own haunted memories to find the truth and surface back into the light.
The trailer doesn't make THE SOUND look like anything exceptional, but the cast alone has me hooked. I didn't need to see a trailer, I was already on board to watch 90 minutes of McGowan and Lloyd hunting ghosts in the subway.
