After Dark Announces Seventh Film Seconds Apart
After Dark Films Announces Seventh Original Title Seconds Apart Packs A Terrifying One-Two Punch. After Dark Films CEO Courtney Solomon has announced, SECONDS APART, as part of the After Dark Originals "A New Brand of Fear" line-up. The film is directed by award winning short-film director Antonio Negret (Towards Darkness) and stars Orlando Jones (Beyond a Reasonable Doubt, Evolution) and twins Gary Entin (Rest Stop, The Seeker) & Edmund Entin (Rest Stop, The Seeker, The New Daughter).
Seth and Jonah are murderous twins who share an evil kinship. Damned from the moment of their births, the brothers possess a talent for telekinesis - a power they are suspected of misusing in the most horrific ways imaginable. As fellow students meet gory fates, a local investigator suspects the twins are connected to these gruesome murders, culminating in one final showdown of brother against brother, evil against evil.
Says Producer Courtney Solomon, "Everyone's heard about that creepy 'twin thing.'" You just can't under-estimate the power of twins, and this film is seasoned by the exceptional performances of Gary and Edmund Entin".
Seconds Apart, from Executive Producers Courtney Solomon and Stephanie Caleb, was shot in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. A release date for Seconds Apart and all eight Originals is scheduled for late January 2011. The series was developed in partnership with Lionsgate. Exclusive content can be found on facebook After Dark Films made an unprecedented commitment to the production of eight original horror films this year under the After Dark Originals "A New Brand of Fear" label, continuing the Company's mission of supporting first time independent film writers and directors. The creation of the AD Originals slate is just another example of the Company's commitment to the indie film industry.
Unlike After Dark's "8 Films To Die For", After Dark Originals are wholly financed and produced by After Dark Films. The ADO slate runs the gamut of the genre, from paranormal phenomena, black magic, and vengeful ghosts to psychological trauma, murderous psychopaths, vampires and the undead. After Dark polled its fans and is delivering the kinds of movies they asked for!
After Dark Films:
Founded in 2006 by film producer/director/writer Courtney Solomon and real estate and textile financier Allan Zeman, After Dark Films is a leader in independent film finance, production and acquisition of genre films for theatrical release.
After Dark is perhaps best known for its creation and execution of After Dark Horrorfest - 8 Films to Die For. Debuting in 2006, After Dark Horrorfest is a one week national film festival that celebrates all aspects of the horror genre. In its first year, Horrorfest became the first film festival in history to break into the Top 10 at the national box office, grossing over $2.5 million. In the home DVD marketplace, After Dark Films and Lionsgate, its distributor, have had great success, with over 1.6 million units currently in circulation.
After Dark's initial film release was the box office success An American Haunting (2006), written, directed and produced by Courtney Solomon. An American Haunting opened at the #2 spot in the nation, and maintained its position for four weeks. Subsequent releases include The Abandoned; Skinwalkers, starring Jason Behr, Rhona Mitra and Matthew Knight; Captivity, starring Elisha Cuthbert and directed by Oscar-nominee Roland Joffe (The Killing Fields); and Frontier(s), directed by Xavier Gens (Hitman). Building upon the success of Horrorfest, After Dark Films has developed a second series in partnership with Syfy and Lionsgate entitled, After Dark Originals, "A New Brand of Fear." After Dark Originals arrive in theaters January 28th, 2011.
