Breakthrough Entertainment and Black Fawn Films have released the first trailer for the upcoming horror-thriller I’ll Take Your Dead.
Directed by Chad Archibald and written by Jayme LaForest (The Heretics, Bite), I’ll Take Your Dead is an unsettling tale of terror that combines an unnerving crime thriller with an original ghost story.
Filmed on location in Orillia and Hamilton, Ontario the film explores the horrors of gang violence and a family that’s being haunted by the death that surrounds it.
I’ll Take Your Dead is set to have its world premiere at the Calgary International Film Festival on Thursday, September 27th with director Chad Archibald, producer Christopher Giroux and actor Aidan Devine in attendance. The film is also set to screen at Hard:Line Film Festival in Germany, GrimmFest in the United Kingdom and Terror Molins in Spain.
“Years ago I did a documentary where I flew across Canada interviewing people in shelters, a lot of them kids, about how they found themselves getting lured into gang activity. Most of them were truly good people that weren’t given a choice. I wanted to make this film to show good and evil and how the lines often blur. It’s about family, violence, death, and knowing when to put your foot down. We had a stellar cast that brought this script to another level and we’re all excited to finally show it to the world. ” says director Chad Archibald.
The film stars Aidan Devine (A History of Violence, Suicide Squad), Ava Preston (DC’s Shazam!, The Kennedys), Jessica Salgueiro (Mary Kills People, The Strain), and Ari Millen (Orphan Black, The Death and Life of John F. Donovan).
I’ll Take Your Dead marks the continuation of Black Fawn Films‘ eight-picture deal with Breakthrough Entertainment (signed in 2014) – which includes films such as The Sublet, Bite, Let Her Out, Bed of the Dead and The Heretics.
Black Fawn Films and Breakthrough Entertainment are also in the final stages of development on their upcoming TV series, The Cleaners.
