From director Benjamin Goalabré comes the pulse-pounding thriller 2 Graves in the Desert, written by Jean Gardeil. “When Eric wakes up, tied and gagged in the trunk of a pick-up truck, it’s instantly clear he’s been kidnapped. However, quickly he discovers he’s accompanied by a young woman, Blake, another hostage. Neither can recall how they ended up in this dire situation and together they desperately try and get any help they can. With no help coming, and as things become more and more hopeless, it soon becomes fearfully apparent that there is more at stake than it first seems. The two kidnappers have their own agenda, and it’s not a pleasant one…” Starring Michael Madsen and William Baldwin star in 2 Graves In The Desert.

The new trailer gives audiences a glimpse into some of the dark, haunting landscapes captured around West Virginia, along with sound clips from witnesses interviewed for the new film. The final chapter in Breedlove’s Mothman trilogy, The Mothman Legacy tells the story of dozens of sightings of a folk legend of dubious origin, who allegedly continues to be seen throughout the area today.
