Supernatural Slasher The Drownsman Out in May

Canadian indie horror filmmaker Chad Archibald, whose Ejecta is about to hit from IFC, will see the release of his supernatural slasher The Drownsman this May.

Anchor Bay has announced a May 12th DVD & Blu date for The Drownsman, a film in the vein of A Nightmare on Elm Street and other paranormal killer thrillers. In the film “After almost drowning in a lake accident, Madison (Michelle Mylett, Antisocial) develops hydrophobia: an abnormal fear of water. After shutting the world and her friends out for over a year, her friends attempt an intervention. But, instead of curbing Madison’s fear, they unknowingly unleash something far worse: The vision of serial killer – turned- supernatural psychopath Sebastian Donner – known as “The Drownsman” – who begins to stalk the women one by one, dragging them into a lair of submerged torment from which there is no escape.”

The Drownsman played last year’s Fantastia Film Festival in Montreal, announcing itself with a terrific piece of art. Find the film’s trailer, below.
