It's been a year and a half since we heard that the then-21-year-old filmmaker Luke Jaden had made his feature directorial debut with a film titled BOO! Last month a trailer for BOO! made its way online and the film was released in some international territories. Now comes word that our wait to see the movie in North America will soon be ending.

Vertical Entertainment has acquired the North American distribution rights to BOO! and will give the film a limited theatrical release on April 12th. BOO! will also be receiving a digital rollout on platforms like iTunes and Amazon, and well as through local cable providers.

Scripted by Jaden and Diane Michelle, the film shows what happens when 

a torn suburban family refuses to heed the warning of an innocent prank left upon them, which causes an unknown supernatural force to wreak havoc.

Jaden Piner, Jill Marie Jones, Aurora Perrineau, Charley Palmer Rothwell, Dwight Henry, and Rob Zabrecky star.

BOO! was produced by Phil Wurtzel of Midland Entertainment and Automatik Entertainment's Brian Kavanaugh-Jones. Bradley Pilz and Fred Berger serve as executive producers, with Ben Collins and Luke Piotrowski co-executive producing. The project was financed by Bradley Pilz Productions and Midland Entertainment.
