Look for something to watch this weekend? Want something filled with frights? From director David Slade comes the horror film Dark Harvest, set on Halloween night.
Based on the award-winning novel by Norman Patridge, this horror-filled film is set 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.”
Rated “R” for strong horror violence and gore, language, and brief drug use, the film stars Casey Likes, E’myri Crutchfield, Dustin Ceithamer, Elizabeth Reaser, and Jeremy Davies. The script is by Michael Gilio; Dark Harvest is produced by Matt Tolmach, p.g.a., David Manpearl, p.g.a. Pamela Hirsch, and Michael Gilio, executive produce.
