New Theatrical Trailer for The Final Project Hunts for the Truth
The Final Project, from CAVU Pictures and 3rd Fathom Films, arrives in New York and Los Angeles theaters on March 4th and then expands nationwide so a new teaser trailer has just been released to keep it on your radar.
In the film six college students go hunting for the supernatural… until the supernatural comes hunting for them! It’s based on a real-life plantation with a disturbingly dark past.
Taylor Ri’chard directs. Amber Erwin, Teal Haddock, Arin Jones, Evan McLean, Leonardo Santaiti, and Sergio Suave star.
Utilizing real locations in and around Georgia, The Final Project features a crew and ensemble of dedicated locals well acquainted with the haunted history of the South. Combining the “found footage” genre with authentic local folklore, it updates the classic American ghost story by tapping into a history too chillingly real to deny. The backstory of The Final Project combines an Old Hollywood touch with a real-life twist. Chretien Point Plantation in Sunset, Louisiana, the real-life model for the film’s Lafitte Plantation, was also the inspiration for the interior of the legendary “Tara” from Gone with the Wind.
Its true claim to fame, however, lies closer to home. The site of a pitched and bloody battle between Union and Confederate soldiers at the height of the Civil War, with a bullet hole still embedded in one of its front doors, Chretien Point has long been rumored to be one of the biggest supernatural “hot spots” in North America. Ghostly sightings have been reported for decades, with stories of buried treasure, a vengeful “house mistress,” and even a nearby haunted bridge.

But on this plantation that time has forgotten, something evil still waits and watches.
