Gravitas Ventures has acquired the North American distribution rights to Lou Simon‘s “9 Windows,” a modern re-telling of Director Alfred Hitchcock‘s 1954 classic, “Rear Window.”
A modern take on the Hitchcockian classic, “9 Windows” made history as the first feature-length, live-action film shot entirely on an extended reality film stage. The film stars Independent Spirit Award Nominee Michael Forsythe (“Raising Arizona,” “The Waterdance”) and Michael Paré (“Streets of Fire,” “Eddie” and “The Cruisers.”)
“On the day of her graduation, Liza and her parents are driving to a restaurant to celebrate when a truck slams into their car. Eighteen months after the car accident, Liza is unable to walk and lives alone after her parents’ death. Feeling responsible, Liza spends her days trolling vloggers on a local website. Late one night, a new video is uploaded in which a man sets fire to a dog. She reports it to the police, but the police detective, Boyle, cannot be bothered with a misdemeanor. However, when videos start popping up showing the gruesome murders of humans, Boyle finally agrees to consult a retired FBI agent to help them track down the killer,” reads the film’s log line.
It continues: “As the murders continue, Liza figures out that the killer is copying the most gruesome serial killers of all time. She finds the killer’s reflection on the knife he used in the second murder and finds out the identity of the murderer. But now that she helped the police identify him, has she inadvertently become his next target?”
The film is set to release on digital & cable VOD on Oct. 15.
