SOUTHERN GOTHIC
From writer-director Mark Young (The Killing Jar, Tooth & Nail) comes SOUTHERN GOTHIC, an acclaimed, highly original shocker that's both a unique and compelling mixture of personal drama and stomach-churning thrills.
In a sleepy Southern town aptly named Redemption, a lonely man is searching for his own form of redemption. Hazel Fortune (Yul Vasquez, American Gangster, Che) is a burnt-out, suicidal strip club bouncer trying to atone for a tragic mistake. He caused the death of his daughter, and ever since has been deep in grief and despair. But Hazel sees a glimmer of hope when a new stripper arrives looking for work. Starla (Nicole DuPort, Tooth & Nail) is not like other girls in the club; she simply wants to make enough money to give her daughter, Hope (Emily Catherine Young), a better future. As Starla plies her trade at the club, Hope and Hazel form a special bond, but But when Hope is kidnapped by Enoch Pitt, a ruthless, psychotic preacher on a bloody crusade, Hazel must make the decision to rejoin the living and risk life and limb to save her from a terrible end.

THE DISAPPEARED
The New Supernatural Shocker in the Great Tradition of English Ghost Stories – and Featuring Stars From Harry Potter and Sense and Sensibility
Cain's primal question, "Am I my brother's keeper?," could serve as the jumping off point and central concern of THE DISAPPEARED, the assured and unsettling debut feature from director Johnny Kevorkian about a young man's struggle following the loss of his sibling. Kevorkian and co-writer Neil Murphy take a simple and singular premise and work it into something truly astonishing.
One night, years earlier, in a London housing project playground, 8-year-old Tom Ryan vanished without a trace and was never found. His older brother, Matthew (Harry Treadaway of the acclaimed Fish Tank and Control), had been entrusted by their father (Greg Wise, Sense and Sensibility) with keeping an eye on his little brother; at first overwhelmed by feelings of guilt, Matthew is now, years later, experiencing frightening visions that make him fear for his sanity.
