"If I can't get it open, you could just go ahead and kill me?" "Deal." Vertical has unveiled an official trailer for indie film The 8th Day – a crime thriller set in West Texas. Formerly known as And on the Eighth Day, this is releasing in limited theaters and VOD this month for anyone to watch. Two small-time thugs, an old woman living with a dark secret, a young woman desperate to get out, and a check-cashing store full of money will all intersect in a small Texas town – in eight days. Marking the feature directorial debut of actress Alexandra Chando. She explains that this little film flips "the heist genre on its head and tell a story through the female gaze. The idea that greed can sometimes play a significant part in driving our decisions, takes each strong minded character on a journey to an unexpected finish line." The indie film stars Darren Mann, Phoebe Tonkin, Mustafa Speaks, Valerie Mahaffey, Lindsey Morgan, and Tanner Beard. Not exactly the most unique setup in this, but still looks like it might be engaging enough to watch anyway. // Continue Reading ›
