With his latest film Tinsman Road, Robbie Banfitch is taking found footage to new emotional heights. Both devastating and terrifying, Banfitch’s second feature film emanates vibes of the iconic Lake Mungo while also forging its own heart-breaking path. Ahead of the film’s world premiere at the Unnamed Footage Festival, Dread Central is excited to exclusively reveal the poster, as well as a haunting poem.

Read the film’s full synopsis below:

Independent to the bone and shot fully on gritty 4:3 Mini-DV in the backwoods of New Jersey, Tinsman Road takes the audience on an emotionally winding voyage into the wilderness of death and sorrow. The story centers on a young man as he navigates the serpentine mystery surrounding his long-missing sister and their family home.

Now check out the poster!

The Tinsman Road filmmakers also provided this poem, written by the missing sister:

THE BLOOM

by Noelle Lyle

with her wither

moan and shiver

ghastly gaping gasping flicker

go she gently, wished the whistler

tilt the wilt ‘pon thrones of wicker,

pluck the morsels of her maybes

wrap a worm around her daisies

rot the knot and dark shall lick her

furl her last uncurling finger

bellow madly, chirped the maggots

death’s a most ungodly habit,

herd our flocks to steep your sockets

surge the flesh of deeper pockets

graze the gray of paler pastures

churning squirming yearning raptures

rake her ringlets

dust the tendrils

string the strands in swollen tangles

toast the maiden

swill the swallow

burst the ripened blood-wet hollows

flood the valleys

rush the red

unknown dances lie ahead,

sing adieu to falling flowers

browning vines and failing powers

drying rivers

diving doves

regretful lips – unspoken loves

memories of aging minds

the final dirt of humankind

so whisper greatly to the dying

a last farewell and here’s to trying.

Leslie Ann Banfitch, (her real-life son) Robbie Banfitch, Salem Belladonna, Heather Middleton, Nancy Bujnowski, David Fekety, Keith Bixby, and Noelle Faccone star in Tinsman Road.

Banfitch wrote and directed the film. He also produced it with Beau J. Genot and Robert Abramoff. Salem Belladonna composed and performed the film’s music.

Tinsman Road will have its world premiere at the Unnamed Footage Festival on March 28, 2025. It’ll also screen at the Frida Cinema in Santa Ana, California, on Saturday, May 3, 2025. Banfitch will be in attendance at both screenings.
