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 Madisons 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 years Fantastia Film Festival in Montreal, announcing itself with a terrific piece of art. Find the films trailer, below.
