Last week, the trailer for home invasion thriller Fear the Night, which stars Maggie Q (Mission: Impossible III) and was directed by Neil LaBute (Lakeview Terrace), arrived online. Quiver Distribution will be giving the film a theatrical, digital, and VOD release on July 21st – and with that date just over three weeks away, a poster for Fear the Night has now been unveiled as well. The poster can be seen at the bottom of this article and shows Q’s character, armed, bloody, and ready for battle.
Scripted by LaBute, Fear the Night has the following synopsis: Eight women attend a bachelorette party at a remote farmhouse in the California hills. They are interrupted by the arrival of masked intruders who surround the place and begin shooting arrows at the home and the guests. One partygoer—Tess, a military veteran who is fighting her addictions and her difficulty at fitting in with other people—leads the women in making a stand against the attackers as they fight back in an effort to save themselves over the course of a single dark night.
Q takes on the role of Tess and is joined in the cast by Kat Foster (Jean-Claude Van Johnson), James Carpinello (The Punisher), Gia Crovatin (House of Darkness), Highdee Kuan (Proximity), Ito Aghayere (Star Trek: Picard), KeiLyn Durrel Jones (Time After Time), Travis Hammer (Godless), Laith Wallschleger (The Getback), Treisa Gary (A League of Their Own), Kirstin Leigh (Diamond in the Rough), Roshni Shukla (9-1-1), and William Roth (Hungry Dog Blues).
Fear the Night was produced by Eric Brenner, along with Berry Meyerowitz, Jeff Sackman, and Larry Greenberg of Quiver Distribution.
In addition to Lakeview Terrace, LaBute has previously directed In the Company of Men, Your Friends and Neighbors, Nurse Betty, Possession, The Shape of Things, The Wicker Man, Death at a Funeral, Some Velvet Morning, Dirty Weekend, House of Darkness, and Out of the Blue, as well as several TV projects.
