Is ‘Live-In Fear’ The Most Disturbing Film In Your Lifetime?
Producers Brandon Scullion and Maria Olsen are proud to announce the world premiere of Live-In Fear at the United Film Festival on September 5, 2014.
We’ve got the art and trailer, which promises it’s “the most disturbing film you’ll see in your lifetime.” I doubt that, but still, the trailer has a fun retro vibe you’ll enjoy.
Live-In Fear stars Sarah Greyson, Arielle Brachfeld, David Lautman, and Chris Dorman and is Las Vegas native Brandon Scullion’s first feature film as a writer/director. Deeply rooted in mystery and shot on a budget of only $5,000 in Brian Head, UT, the film holds true to the DIY tradition of low-budget filmmaking – only using resources readily available to the filmmakers to capture truly disturbing and graphic imagery. Says the release, it is sure to lurk in one’s minds for weeks after viewing.
Live-In Fear will have its world premiere at the United Film Festival on September 5th, 2014 at 9:30pm in Los Angeles, CA. Tickets are available for purchase here.
“On February 28, 2002, four emotionally distant friends traveled to a remote condo in the snowcapped Utah Mountains for what was supposed to be a time for them to come together and mend their relationships. On the ride up, Seth suspiciously proclaims that his mother has died from unknown causes but he conveniently left out the part where he is being haunted by increasingly disturbing visions of her. On arrival, the four friends start to lash out at each other and end up only driving themselves further apart as a destructive cult hell-bent on resurrecting an ancient cosmic god emerges to torment them.“
