"The Path"
Stonecutter Media has acquired North American rights to "The Path", the new feature thriller, written and directed by Tom Archdeacon, co-founder of Frost Pictures. The film will have its world theatrical premieres on September 12 in New Jersey and September 19 in Beverly Hills and will be tentatively released digitally on September 24th on streaming/TVOD on VUDU, Amazon, Apple TV, and iTunes, as well as on most major cable and satellite on demand platforms in the US and Canada, including Dish, DirecTV, Spectrum, Xfinity, Sling TV, Verizon Fios, Altice USA.
The film is about a young woman, who after losing her parents in a fatal car crash, returns home to care for her younger sister and help to manage the family farm. She soon begins to suffer strange and unsettling moments that grow into unexplainable happenings and terrifying events. Determined to sell the failing farm, the young woman and her sister eventually discover the dark past linked to their childhood home, as well as the strange circumstances surrounding her parents’ deaths.
Steve Karel, founder of The Stonecutter Group, comments, “We’re delighted to add 'The Path' to our feature film offerings. We look for quality films in niche categories, and we feel the film will resonate very well with fans of the thriller/horror genre as we approach Halloween.”
“My goal was to make a truly scary film that delivers fright without cheap tropes and without blood and gore. I wanted to create subtle tensions and have them build from the opening moments until the end credits roll,” explains Archdeacon. “My vision was to produce a horror film that delivers terror through real drama and a twisting plot.”
The film stars Tess Hanna ("Stuff from the 90's"), Taylor Colwell ("Gotham"), Brian McManamon ("Gotham"), Alex MacNicoll ("Brilliant Minds") and Archdeacon, who has a featured role in the film. Frost Pictures' Brian Arnott is producer of the film, while Steve Karel and Spero Stamboulis negotiated the deal on behalf of Stonecutter Media.
