No stranger to the horror genre, Emma Fitzpatrick (The Collection, Bloodsucking Bastards) co-wrote and stars in Gia Elliot's new movie Take Back the Night, in which her character, Jane, survives a brutal creature attack only to face equally destructive speculation from those around her in the aftermath of the ruthless encounter.

To celebrate the film's March 4th theatrical and digital release from Dark Sky Films, Daily Dead Managing Editor and Monsters, Makeup & Effects: Volume 1 author Heather Wixson will be hosting a special screening and Q&A for Take Back the Night at 8:30pm on Thursday, March 3rd, at the Cinelounge Rooftop at The Montalbán theatre in Hollywood!

Below, you can check out the poster with additional details for the rooftop screening (which will include COVID-19 safety precautions in accordance with LA County guidelines), and we also have a look at the official synopsis and trailer for Take Back the Night!

Finding herself the victim of a violent monster attack, Jane launches a vigilante campaign to hunt the beast that tried to kill her. Jane’s efforts intensify, but her troubling history of drug use and mental illness bubbles to the surface causing her family, community, and authorities to question the authenticity of her account. Suddenly alone in her fight, Jane starts to doubt her own memory of the attack…to doubt if Monster exists at all.

Fueled by formidable female talent both in front of and behind the camera, Gia Elliot's Take Back The Night is a terrifying suspense thriller that's both an eye-opening exposé and a powerful rallying cry.
