Screen Daily reports that IFC Midnight has acquired North American rights to Dark Summer, Paul Solet’s supernatural horror film that Content Media will introduce to international buyers at the AFM.
“Dark Summer is a stylised contemporary ghost story about a home-alone teenager on house arrest who experiences a terrifying presence.”
Keir Gilchrist stars with Stella Maeve, Grace Phipps, Maestro Harrell and Peter Stormare.
The distributor has set the multi-platform release for January 9, 2015, after brokering the deal with Preferred Content and Content Media.
Here’s the first ever image and now a trailer, thanks to Bloody reader Fabien M.
“IFC Midnight truly excels in the elevated genre space and has been a great North American home for the Pact franchise – so we’re very happy to have them as partners on Dark Summer,” said Carmichael.
