We’ve been talking about the horror/sci-fi thriller Shortwave for some time now, and with the film wrapping up a successful festival run after its Spanish premiere last weekend as an official selection at the Sitges Film Festival, the powers-that-be have decided to release a new trailer.
Shortwave (review) has close to 20 film fests under its belt, wracking up several awards in the process, including, most recently, Best Feature and Best Cinematography at the NOLA Horror Film Fest.
Bluefox Entertainment is handling worldwide sales for the film and plans to have distribution deals in place in the coming months so stay tuned for release details.
Shortwave was produced by Tony Mancilla and Lindsay Lanzillotta (two of the producers of Sitges winner The Invitation) and director/writer/editor Ryan Gregory Phillips, who is making his directorial debut. It stars Chilean actors Juanita Ringeling and Cristobal Tapia Montt as well as Kyle Davis and features Jay Ellis, Nina Senicar, and Sara Malakul Lane.
If you are not familiar with shortwave radios or the stories around them, many believe the signals broadcast by them could be from space or perhaps even a different time or dimension.
Synopsis:
Josh and Isabel Harris, after suffering the loss of their only child, relocate to a secluded hillside research facility with the hopes of repairing their broken family. After years of trying, Josh and his research partner, Thomas, have a breakthrough involving a cryptic shortwave radio signal and its universal origins. Something within the signal resonates with Isabel, and she begins experiencing hallucinations and visions of distant memories. Upon further investigation into the phenomenon, the scientists fear for Isabel’s health while Isabel fears the signal has attracted something sinister to their new home.
