Released a handful of years ago, the thoroughly mystifying YELLOWBRICKROAD didn’t land with much impact; I don’t know if I’ve spoken to more than five people who also saw it. But I recall a few sequences and images being incredibly vivid; I didn’t ultimately like the film as a whole, but I found some of it quite intriguing and have always been curious to see what else the directors have up their sleeves.
We should find out the answer later this year, when YELLOWBRICKROAD directors Jesse Holland and Andy Mitton unleash WE GO ON. The film will have its World Premiere at the Cinequest Film Festival in San Jose, California on Saturday March 5th at 9:30pm. The trailer for the film, which delves into one man’s concerns about the afterlife and paranormal, can be found below.
WE GO ON follows Miles Grissom, who is offering reward money to the first person who can show him a ghost, an angel, a demon – anything to prove there’s life after death. He narrows the responses to three viable candidates – a scientist, a medium, a worldly entrepreneur – and along with his protective mother, he embarks on a dangerous adventure through Los Angeles that will spiral into an unthinkable nightmare.
Directed by Andy Mitton & Jesse Holland (YELLOWBRICKROAD), with screenplay by Mitton, WE GO ON stars Annette O’Toole (48 HOURS, STEPHEN KING’S IT, Smallville), Clark Freeman (YELLOWBRICKROAD), John Glover (SCROOGED, GREMLINS 2, Smallville), Giovanna Zacarías (THE LEGEND OF ZORRO), Jay Dunn, and Laura Heisler.
