Aside from the “Black Mirror: Bandersnatch” experimental project, filmmaker David Slade (“30 Days of Night,” “Hard Candy”) hasn’t released a film since 2010’s “The Twilight Saga: Eclipse”.
In recent years he’s been more occupied with his impressive TV work, including stints on “Hannibal,” “Breaking Bad” and “American Gods”.
That’s finally about to change with the long-in-the-works horror film “Dark Harvest” finally set to arrive with the trailer launching today.
The story unfolds in a cursed town where the annual harvest becomes a brutal battle for survival. On Halloween 1963, Sawtooth Jack, a terrifying legend, rises from the cornfields, threatening the town’s children.
Groups of boys unite to defeat the murderous scarecrow before midnight. Richie, a rebellious outcast, joins the run, motivated by his brother’s previous victory.
As the hunt progresses, Richie makes a shocking discovery and faces a pivotal choice to break the relentless cycle.
Casey Likes, Emyri Crutchfield, Dustin Ceithamer, Elizabeth Reaser, Jeremy Davies and Luke Kirby co-star. “Dark Harvest” premieres on VOD on October 13th.
