Sunrise Films and Vertigo Releasing have announced their upcoming multi-territory release of writer/director Samuel Clemens’ The Drowned, and we can exclusively unveil key art for the creature thriller.
The Greek mythology horror movie, formerly known as The Waterhouse, premiered in London at FrightFest Halloween and will release via Sunrise Films on major digital platforms in North America on October 7.
The Drowned follows “three thieves who have just stolen a priceless painting and arrive at a secluded safe house by the sea, only to discover their fourth accomplice is missing. They must question whether one of them was responsible for her disappearance, or if the blame lies with a more sinister presence lurking in the deep water below.”
Clemens, who is the great, great great nephew of Mark Twain, makes his feature debut.
The film stars Alan Calton (Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning), Lara Lemon (War Of The Worlds: The Attack) and Lily Catalifo (Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny), alongside Dominic Vulliamy (BBC One’s Rules Of The Game), Corrinne Wicks, Michelangelo Fortuzzi, and Sandrine Salyères.
Agam Jain, George Clemens and Fernando Ruiz produced for Take The Shot Films, and James Kermack and Julien Loeffler for Featuristic Films.
The Drowned also releases in Australia and New Zealand on October 8. Sister company Vertigo Releasing will release digitally on October 6 in the UK and Ireland.
