Official Poster, Behind-the-Scenes Vid of ‘A Lonely Place to Die’
Updated with official poster! I love AFM, it’s the one week where indie producers unload all sorts of posters, images, trailers and promos for their upcoming films. This morning we were tipped off to a behind-the-scenes promo for Julian Gilbey’s A Lonely Place To Die (aka The Grave at Angel’s Peak), which stars Melissa George (Turistas, 30 Days of Night, Amityville Horror), Ed Speleers, Sean Harris, and Karel Roden. The thriller begins when a group of five mountaineers are hiking and climbing in the Scottish Highlands when they discover a young Serbian girl buried in a small chamber in the wilderness. They become caught up in a terrifying game of cat and mouse with the kidnappers as they try to get the girl to safety.
