Echo Chamber - 271
Are you ready for a new EchoChamberFP cause we've hit that time of the week again!!!
FOUR films and a documentary, starting off with Shudder's new thriller. Then a Netflix joint from Altitude Films & Stigma Films dealing with advanced tech & love! We look for the unknown with Small Town Monsters & 1091 Pictures. And American High & Hulu go looking for trouble. WE end with Paramount Pictures, Hasbro & eOne role-play adaptation!
'Bad Things' is written & directed by Stewart Thorndike. A group of friends (Gayle Rankin, Hari Nef, Rad Pereira, Annabelle Dexter-Jones) who go to a hotel for a weekend getaway and soon discover that women do bad things here.
'T.I.M.' is the feature directorial debut from Spencer Brown, which he also wrote with Sarah Govett. Abi (Georgina Campbell) is offered the prototype model of T.I.M. (Eamon Farren) a "Technologically. Integrated. Manservant" to help her and her husband Paul (Mark Rowley) as they move into a new house.
'On the Trail of Bigfoot: Land of the Missing' is written & directed by Seth Breedlove. Centuries of reports of hair-covered creatures roaming Alaska have been uncovered. Yet beyond the mysterious apelike animals that haunt the forests of the 49th state, there exist numerous legends of horrific beings that blur the line between Bigfoot and something else. Something with a far darker agenda. Now, eyewitnesses and experts alike recount stories that will chill you to your bone. Stories that tie Bigfoot-like creatures to tales of mountain giants, and even missing persons.
'Miguel Wants to Fight' is directed by Oz Rodriguez, written Shea Serrano & Jason Concepcion. Despite living in a neighborhood where fighting is stitched into the fabric of everyday life, high school junior Miguel (Tyler Dean Flores) has never found himself in one. And, to be honest, he's perfectly fine with that. But when a combination of events turn his life upside down, Miguel and his three best friends the stoic David (Christian Vunipola), the rowdy Cass (Imani Lewis) and the quick-tonged Srini (Suraj Partha) enter into a series of hilarious misadventures as he tries to get into his first ever fight.
'Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves' is directed by Jonathan Goldstein & John Francis Daley who co-wrote with Michael Gilio. A charming thief (Chris Pine) and a band of unlikely adventurers (Michelle Rodriguez, Justice Smith, Sophia Lillis, Regé-Jean Page) undertake an epic heist to retrieve a lost relic, but things go dangerously awry when they run afoul of the wrong people (Daisy Head, Hugh Grant).
