Director Gisberg Bermúdez Molero's horror film THE WHISTLER was already a box office hit in its native Venezuela, and this is a big week for the movie in a couple other countries. It was released on DVD in the UK yesterday (you can pick up a copy HERE), and in the US Uncork'd Entertainment and Dark Star Pictures will be kicking off their rollout release of THE WHISTLER this Friday, September 6th.

THE WHISTLER begins showing at the Laemmle Theaters in Los Angeles this Friday. It will be reaching screens in other US cities after that, with a VOD release coming along in the fall.

Inspired by a legend that is well known in Venezuela and Colombia, THE WHISTLER tells the following story: 

A young father wrestles with inner demons and saving the soul of his daughter from The Whistler – a phantasmagorical figure who wanders the night with a bag of his father's bones and whistles in the darkness. When the whistling sounds far away, he is probably already watching you…

The film stars Daniela Bueno, Yon Henao Calderón, and Eliane Chipia.

Check out the trailer for THE WHISTLER below and see if this looks like a movie you'd like to watch. The trailer has me intrigued, I think I will be watching the US VOD release later this year.
