With her father at war and her mother ailing from an enigmatic illness (or perhaps something more sinister), a young woman tries to keep her family together under pressure from outside forces in William McGregor's Gwen. With the harrowing coming-of-age film coming out in mid-August, the official trailer has been revealed by RLJE Films.
Written and directed by William McGregor, Gwen stars Maxine Peake and Eleanor Worthington-Cox. RLJE Films and Shudder will release Gwen in theaters as well as On Demand and Digital HD beginning August 16th. Check out the trailer and poster below, and stay tuned to Daily Dead for our interview with McGregor.
Synopsis: "Gwen is a young girl desperately trying to hold her home together – struggling with her mother's mysterious illness, her father's absence and a ruthless mining company encroaching on their land. As a growing darkness begins to take grip of her home, the local community grows suspicious and turns on Gwen and her family."
Raised on a steady diet of R.L. Stine’s Goosebumps books and Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Derek has been fascinated with fear since he first saw ForeverWare being used on an episode of Eerie, Indiana.
When he’s not writing about horror as the Senior News Reporter for Daily Dead, Derek can be found daydreaming about the Santa Carla Boardwalk from The Lost Boys or reading Stephen King and Brian Keene novels.
