After working as a producer on the V/H/S trilogy and THE DEVIL'S CANDY, Roxanne Benjamin made her directorial debut with a segment of the anthology SOUTHBOUND, and followed that up with a segment of the anthology XX. Now Magnolia Pictures' Magnet Releasing is gearing up to give Benjamin's feature film BODY AT BRIGHTON ROCK a theatrical and VOD release, and a trailer has arrived online to give us an idea of what she has in store for us with this one.
Also written by Benjamin, BODY AT BRIGHTON ROCK stars Karina Fontes as
Wendy, a part-time summer employee at a mountainous state park, who takes on a rough trail assignment at the end of the season, trying to prove to her friends that she’s capable enough to do the job. When she takes a wrong turn and ends up deep in the backcountry, she stumbles upon what might be a potential crime scene. Stuck with no communication after losing her radio and with orders to guard the site, Wendy must fight the urge to run and do the harder job of staying put – spending the night deep in the wilderness, facing down her worst fears and proving to everyone – including herself – that she’s made of stronger stuff than they think she is.
The trailer can be seen below, and the movie looks to be a pretty solid survival thriller that has Wendy trying to survive encounters with both wildlife and humans.
BODY AT BRIGHTON ROCK will be released on April 26th. Give the trailer a look and see if this is a movie you'd like to watch next month.
