Colin Minihan's thriller WHAT KEEPS YOU ALIVE starring Hannah Emily Anderson (JIGSAW) and Brittany Allen (JIGSAW again) had its world premiere last month in the Midnighters section at SXSW and I have heard nothing but extremely postive word of mouth surrounding the film ever since.
I guess you could say that it's fitting then that today we have word via Deadline that the film has been picked up by none other than IFC Midnight. Writer-director Colin Minihan was understandably excited about the acquisition and said this in a statement.
Colin Minihan:
I’m very excited to be working with IFC Midnight on releasing What Keeps You Alive. They are at the top of their game and consistently releasing the best the genre has to offer.
There isn't a release date set for the film yet but you can be sure that I will be checking it out as soon as it hits. What about you? Make sure to hit us up and let us know in the comments below or on social media!
Synopsis:
A same-sex couple against one another on their one-year anniversary.
