Writer/Director Jason Miller’s feature debut, Ghosts of the Void, presents a haunting look the American Dream or, more accurately, the fragility of it. A brand new trailer gives a closer look at the grim horror.
Ghosts of the Void releases on Digital and VOD on Tuesday, November 7, 2023.
In the film, “Jen and Tyler used to have it all: a solid marriage, a nice home, and careers that promised a bright future. But when Tyler’s drinking problem worsens, and his writer’s block continues, the debt collectors show no mercy, forcing the couple out of their home and into their car. Beyond stressed, exhausted, and overwhelmed with feelings of failure, Jen and Tyler park their car in a vacant lot, hoping to get a good night’s sleep before dealing with the realities of tomorrow. However, their sleep becomes interrupted by homeless passersby, mischievous local kids, and eventually, ominous strangers in harrowing masks.”
Watch the trailer below to meet Jen and Tyler at their lowest, before a nightmarish encounter threatens to make their lives even worse.
Tedra Millan and Michael Reagan star.
I wrote in my capsule review of the film out of Popcorn Frights, “Miller seeks to challenge perceptions and dangles hope through Jen, though don’t look for escapism in this bleak, reality-based horror entry,” and, “confident direction ensures a handsomely shot debut, though one that devastates.”
In other words, don’t expect to find comfort in this assured debut.
