Interview

Interview: ‘Vanishing on 7th Street’ Director Brad Anderson!

Now playing On Demand and screening in limited theaters on March 18th, Brad Anderson’s Vanishing on 7th Street (review) tells the story of a small group of individuals who hole up in a Detroit tavern after the rest of the population seemingly vanishes overnight, leaving only their clothes and other personal items behind. When the daylight begins to wane and soon vanishes completely, they realize that the darkness itself is out to consume them. Recently B-D reporter Chris Eggertsen got on the phone with Anderson, who has previously helmed such creep-fests as Session 9 and The Machinist, to discuss his latest creation. In the process he talked about his reasoning behind keeping the cause of the apocalyptic phenomenon in the story a mystery, creating the eerie “voices” of the shadow creatures, and how shooting in the city of Detroit in some ways mirrored the fictional situation created for the film.

Interestingly, Brad Anderson first received major industry attention not for directing a horror film but rather a romantic comedy entitled Next Stop Wonderland, which debuted at the 1998 Sundance Film Festival and was picked up for distribution by Miramax Films following an intense bidding war. His next film, the time-travel romance Happy Accidents starring Marisa Tomei, added a little genre flavor to his resume, but it wasn’t until 2001 that he would enter the horror arena in a big way with Session 9, a deeply unsettling film about an asbestos removal crew plagued by bizarre occurrences while working in an abandoned mental hospital. He followed up that low-key chiller with 2004′s The Machinist, starring Christian Bale as an insomniac literally wasting away to nothing, and later the Hitchcockian thriller Transsiberian, starring Woody Harrelson and Emily Mortimer.

His latest film, the apocalyptic horror Vanishing on 7th Street (now playing On Demand and debuting in limited theaters March 18th) goes perhaps darker (in a visual sense, anyway) than any of his previous movies, in its story of a small group of individuals attempting to survive a malignant darkness that’s threatening to consume every human being on the planet.

Darkness Creeps Forth in ‘Vanishing on 7th Street’ Poster Debut

Update with hi-res poster. I’m not exactly sure what’s up with the marketing for Brad Anderson’s (Session 9, Transsiberian, The Machinist) Vanishing on 7th Street (review), his latest horror venture that premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival this past September. First we saw really lo-res images, then a dark and grainy trailer showed itself, now the official poster comes in and it’s only 400 pixels wide? WTF? I’ll say this though, the poster is AWESOME and highly representational of what you’ll see when Magnet releases it On Demand January 7, with a limited theatrical run planned for February 18. Starring Hayden Christensen, John Leguizamo, and Thandie Newton, following a mysterious blackout, most of the population vanishes into thin air.
