Last Year’s APPLECART Gets New Name and Locks Down Release Date
Last year’s Fantastic Fest saw the world premiere of Applecart, the psychological thriller from the producers of John Dies at the End. Since then, the film underwent some edits and a bit of retooling, including a brand new name: Dead Night. To celebrate the new moniker, Dark Sky Films has released a trailer and new poster for the film, which they will be releasing in limited theaters and on VOD on July 27.
“James and his wife Casey load up their two teenage kids and head out to a remote cabin in Oregon for a weekend trip. When James heads into the snowy forest in search of firewood, he encounters an enigmatic woman passed out in the snow. Bringing her back to the cabin for help, the family has no way of knowing that the woman’s presence is the catalyst for a series of events that will change their lives forever.”
Directed by Bradford Baruh and written by Irving Walker, Dead Night stars Barbara Crampton, Brea Grant, AJ Bowen, Sophie Dalah,
Elise Luthman, Joshua Hoffman, and Daniel Roebuck.
