There’s something wrong with the cornfield in shot-on-35mm home invasion horror The Rows, and we’re exclusively unveiling the trailer ahead of the film’s arrival at FrightFest next month.
The Rows will have its International Premiere at FrightFest on August 25.
The film is described as “A minimal dialogue 98-minute potboiler in the vein of No Country for Old Men, The Strangers, and The Town That Dreaded Sundown. “
In The Rows, “Seven-year-old Lucy wakes up in the middle of a mysterious cornfield. She has a bloody wound on her head and no memory of how she got there. Discovering a dead body and an abandoned gun in a nearby clearing, she is immediately confronted by three masked killers searching for her. Deadly games of cat-and-mouse ensue as Lucy tries to evade the gang while hunting for an exit from the seemingly endless corn. With night falling and the bad guys closing in, Lucy fights to stay alive… aided by her family dog and the uncanny golden creature who lives in the rows.”
Watch the nearly dialogue-free trailer below that emphasizes atmosphere over plot; there’s very little dialogue and a whole lot of creepy corn.
The supernatural horror thriller marks the feature debut of writer-director Seth Daly.
The Rows stars Brindisi Dupree (Dr. Quarantine), Lara Pictet (Secret Identity, By Light of Desert Night), Marcus Woods (Empire, Fatal Attraction, Finding Nicole), Hans Heilmann (The Lord of All Future Space & Time, Well Past Midnight), Mary Montoya, Rynn Reigns, Douglas Fries, and Seth Daly.
Daly said in a statement, “The Rows was made for FrightFest and the cinematic aesthetic it celebrates. From the celluloid photography to the killer soundtrack, everything was crafted with the theatrical experience in mind. The audience will have a blast.”
Stay tuned for additional news on The Rows as it arrives.
