A blind woman’s stay in the country becomes a nightmare in Alone trailer

This Friday, INDEPENDENCE DAY / GODZILLA 1998 co-writer Dean Devlin's company Electric Entertainment will be giving the thriller ALONE a VOD release through iTunes and Amazon Prime. A couple days ahead of the release, we've gotten our hands on a trailer for the film.

The feature directorial debut of Vladislav Khesin, ALONE was scripted by Samuel Bandeira, Gabriel Legua, and Olabode Olakanmi. Starring Elizabeth Arends, the film is about 

a writer seeking peace and solitude in the countryside in an attempt to recover from tragedy and finish her book. However, as the welcoming country house turns into a living hell, she soon realizes that her inner demons are not the worst of her problems.

If that short synopsis didn't pull you in, give this longer one a try: 

Emma, a blind writer who’s just been through a horrific experience, is told by her doctor to find an isolated spot away from the city to get some peace of mind and finish the book she’s been writing. Following his advice, Emma decides to spend some days in a summerhouse that belongs to one of her old friends, Robert. He takes her there, with a flirtatious attitude, even though he’s slightly older and married. Jill, Robert’s wife, greets Emma outside the house in a forested area as soon as she arrives, but all the blind woman wants is to be left alone.

In the house, Emma remembers the traumatic experience she had, which resulted in her losing her baby in a miscarriage. Currently, she carries with her a 3D printed ultrasound of the unborn child. From the first night, Emma becomes weary of the house, which is seemingly empty, but she can’t help but feel like someone else is in there with her. There’s creaking echoing all around her, she manages to see blurs that resemble a person staring at her, the security alarm goes off without anyone breaking in, her tape recorder with which she records her book changes places constantly. She’s convinced something isn’t right.

Parallel to Emma’s story, a group of four teenagers – Hailey, Luke, Nicole, and Jesse – make their way to the same summerhouse. Even though they’re all friends, Nicole and Jesse don’t get along very well, and Luke sheepishly attempts to flirt with Hailey, but something is clearly bothering her. As they get to the house, which is empty, they’re taken over by the same feeling that was bothering Emma – something is happening in the house. Initially, the group is shocked by a couple of jocks, Daniel and Nate, who’d arrived with the intention of scaring them. Nicole had invited Daniel, her boyfriend, but she didn’t know he’d bring Nate along, who’s Hailey’s ex.

As tension rises between all the teenagers, both storylines start intertwining as details from Emma’s story become more and more present in the teens’, slowly bringing both of them together to a conclusion. Could they be being haunted by the same entity?

Arends is joined in the cast by Bailey Coppola, Sara Anne, Albina Katsman, Dana Majors, Kyle Dondlinger, Caesar James, and Christa Atkins.

ALONE was produced by Evgeny Borisov, Daniel Shapovalov, and Abylay Zhakashov.
