‘Imposters’ – Blue Finch Films Acquires SXSW Sci-Fi Thriller
Ahead of its World Premiere at the SXSW Film Festival this coming March, U.K.-based sales and distribution company Blue Finch Films has acquired worldwide rights to Caleb J. Phillips‘s hotly anticipated horror thriller Imposters, reports Variety.
The first photo shared last week shows stars Jessica Rothe (Happy Death Day) and Charlie Barnett (“Russian Doll”) as a couple whose baby boy is taken, and the desperate mother learns of a way to bring him back. However, her husband begins to suspect that what she returned with isn’t their son.
Imposters sounds like one of its inspirations is clearly Stephen King’s “Pet Sematary”!
Yul Vazquez, Bates Wilder, Luisina Quarleri, Thomas Parobek, Ian Lyons, Taylor Karin, Lee Bennett, and Declan Bennett also star.
Interestingly, Hell House LLC franchise producer Joe Bandelli is part of the producing team with Thomas Bond and Sara Seligman.
“Imposters is a mystery thriller inspired by my parents,” Phillips said. “It explores how much damage two people can do to themselves and the world around them when they refuse to change.”
Blue Finch Films’ Mike Chapman called the film “an inventive and thrilling debut from Caleb Phillips, which secures him as an audacious new voice in genre.”
