Stanley Film Festival 2015: The Listing Artwork Officially Listed
Playing Sunday, May 3rd, at the Stanley Film Festival in Estes Park, Colorado, is Luke Jaden’s new short film, The Listing; and right now we have your first details, artwork, and more.
From the Press Release:
19-year-old Michigan native director Luke Jaden is set to premiere his first film foray into the horror genre early next month with The Listing, starring Erin Cummings (The Iceman, Cold Comes the Night) and Rob Zabrecky (Lost River). Written by up-and-coming Detroit author and screenwriter Josh Malerman (Birdbox), The Listing tells the tale of what happens in a haunted house before an unsuspecting family arrives.
Jaden’s youthful, energetic approach to filmmaking is clearly palpable even in his description of the film. According to Jaden, “It’s got a more psychological vibe to it that’s atmospheric and moody.”
Cort Johns (King Ripple), Michael Angelo Zervos (Papou), and Jaime Gallagher (King Ripple) produced the film with Jaden.
Despite the recent success, Jaden isn’t resting on his laurels. With one film just starting to make it into film festival lineups, he’s currently completing post-production on another short film and starting pre-production on another. In his mind, his hard won lessons from The Listing have made an impact on his development as a busy filmmaker. “I’ve learned that if you don’t have a team that really truly believes in you or a cast that just really connects with their performances, you’re better off to not even make the film.”
The Listing will be playing Sunday, May 3rd, at the Stanley Film Festival in Estes Park, Colorado. For all other information on the film, click here or here.
Synopsis:
Every haunted house story goes the same way: A family moves in; strange things start happening. The Listing asks a frightening question: What was going on inside the house before the family moved in? Did the entity nest? Did it wait? Did it prepare? The entity in The Listing is, at turns, wretched, self-loathing, exuberant, angry, violent, disgusting, and joyful. The audience may be surprised at how much it relates to this (almost) characterless story, finding something terribly human in the lonely, brooding, troubled entity that has this house to itself… for now.
