From Oscar-nominated director, Jonathan Heap comes The Unwilling, a supernatural tale of family and desperation.
The film was written by Lipper who co-produced along with Philip Morton. Oscar and Emmy winning David Stump served as cinematographer.
Starring David Lipper ( Sons of Liberty), Dina Meyer (Saw I-II-III-IV, ), Levy Tran (Furious 7), Lance Henriksen ( Aliens), Bree Williamson (True Detective), Jake Thomas ( A.I. Artificial Intelligence), Austin Highsmith (Scream: The TV Series) and Robert Russler (Ray Donovan, ), The Unwilling asks viewers, “What is your dying wish?”
In the film, David Harris (Lipper) is normal in almost every way but has to fight through a crippling Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, brought on by his abusive father during his childhood. His OCD forces him to repeat movements and phrases and confines him to the safety of his home. Following his father’s death, David’s estranged relatives arrive to hear the reading of the will in anticipation of their piece of the fortune. They are surprised by the delivery of a “Lovecraft” style antique box instead. The box takes hold of their innermost desires one by one and entices the dangerous behavior that ensues. Will they last through the night or be wishing they never gave into temptation?
The Unwilling is set to be released on Blu-ray, DVD, and VOD on May 1, 2018.
