Acclaimed indie horror filmmaker J. Horton is back with his latest genre-bending film, A Hard Place. This action-packed thrill ride features a stellar cast, including scream queen icons Felissa Rose (Sleepaway Camp) and Lynn Lowry (The Crazies), alongside Glenn Plummer (Saw II) and Bai Ling (The Crow).
A Hard Place throws a group of unlucky criminals into the middle of a terrifying conflict between “the creatures that roam the night and the monsters that rule the day.” Shot on location in Dayton, Ohio, the film boasts impressive practical effects and a relentless pace, delivering a fresh take on creature feature storytelling.
“We wanted to create a movie that truly celebrates the grit and creativity of indie horror,” says J. Horton. “This one’s for the fans who love practical effects, intense storytelling, and monsters with real bite.”
A Hard Place will premiere in Dayton, Ohio, on January 12th, 2025, before embarking on a thrilling roadshow tour of indie theaters and drive-ins nationwide. The film will be available on streaming and physical media this spring.
