By Bleecker Street has premiered a new trailer for its Stone Age survivalist horror feature “Out of Darkness” which opens theatrically on February 9th.
45,000 years ago, during the brutal Paleolithic era, a small boat reached the shore of an inhospitable landscape. Six people have struggled across the narrow sea in hopes of finding a new home.
When night falls, hope turns to terror as they realize they are not alone. As relationships in the group begin to fracture, a determined young woman confronts the terrible actions needed to survive this horrifying and mysterious new enemy.
Safia Oakley-Green, Kit Young, Chuku Modu, Iola Evans, Arno Lüning and Luna Mwezi star in the film previously titled “The Origin” and which marks the feature debut of filmmaker Andrew Cumming.
The project uses a made-up language created entirely for the film and assembled with the help of an archaeologist and a linguist to craft something that would be authentic to the period.
The film has made the festival rounds over the past year or so and Oakley-Green won the Breakthrough Performance category at the British Independent Film Awards for her work here.
The post Trailer: Stone Age Thriller “Out of Darkness” appeared first on Dark Horizons.
