Disobedience Has Consequences in Our Exclusive Clip from Hostage Horror HELD

A couple’s ailing marriage is put to the test when they are held hostage in an isolated vacation rental by an unseen voice that commands their every move. Held will screen as part of Frightfest 2020 on Wednesday, October 21 at 6:30 pm GMT+1 / 10:30 am PST.

Today, Dread Central is thrilled to share an exclusive clip from the film. Check it out and read more about the movie below.

Synopsis:
Emma and Henry’s marriage is losing its spark. In an effort to reconnect on their 9-year anniversary, they vacation to a remote luxury rental, complete with automated smart house features and integrated security. After suspecting a night time intruder however, they decide to flee, only to become forcibly trapped inside by the all-encompassing technology. Then a Voice tells them their entire movements are being watched, revealing intimate knowledge about their relationship. As events get more brutal and dehumanizing, Emma and Henry must work together to uncover the truth and find a way out before it’s too late.

Held is directed by Chris Lofing and Travis Cluff from a screenplay penned by Jill Awbrey. The film stars Jill Awbrey and Bart Johnson.
