Collectors will be able to add Initiation to their film libraries when it arrives on Blu-ray and DVD beginning June 10th from Lionsgate!
Synopsis:
During a university’s pledge week, the carefree partying turns deadly serious when a star athlete is found impaled in his dorm. The murder ignites a spree of sinister social-media messages, sweeping the students and police into a race against time to uncover the truth behind the school’s dark secrets…and the horrifying meaning of a recurring symbol: a single exclamation mark.
Go back to school if you dare…. Murder is trending when Initiation arrives on Blu-ray (plus Digital) and DVD July 20th from Lionsgate. Social media turns sinister when Jon Huertas (TV’s This Is Us), Lochlyn Munro (The Predator), Isabella Gomez (TV’s One Day at a Time), Froy Gutierrez (TV’s Teen Wolf), Bart Johnson (High School Musical franchise), Yancy Butler (Kick-Ass franchise), and Gattlin Griffith (Changeling) try to survive pledge week in this fun slasher film. Initiation will be available on Blu-ray and DVD for the suggested retail price of $21.99 and $19.98, respectively.
John Berardo directed Initiation from an original screenplay he also co-wrote along with Brian Frager and Lindsay LaVanchy. His short film Dembanger inspired this. Berardo wanted to expand his short movie into a full-length film after he saw the awesome screen share fright flick Unfriended.
