Richard E. Williams will see his Aussie POV horror Dead Eyes have its World Premiere at the SXSW Film Festival later this month, and today, we have the first teaser.
The trailer follows someone searching the woods for a missing person, only to find exactly what they’re looking for… and it’s clearly not a good thing.
Rijen Laine, Ana Thu Nguyen (Mortal Kombat II), Charles Cottier, Alea O’Shea, Mischa Heywood (Bring Her Back), Stephen Phillips (Bring Her Back), and Freya Callaghan star.
Here’s a long synopsis that reveals the antagonists are evil clones?!
“Sean (Laine) and his fiancée, Grace (Nguyen), enter a remote forest to search for Sean’s missing father, Paul (Phillips), who vanished following the tragic death of his youngest daughter, Lilly (Heywood). Returning to the site of Lilly’s death forces Sean to confront his inner demons—which soon begin to manifest in terrifying physical ways. Their search takes a horrifying turn when they uncover Paul’s dark secret: cloning experiments designed to resurrect Lilly. The forest is now inhabited by cannibalistic mutant girls, each a clone of Lilly, violently battling to prove she is the ‘real’ one. As Sean and Grace uncover the grim truth, they must survive grotesque creatures while grappling with disturbing questions about identity, loss, and the boundaries between life and death.”
Watch for our review out of the SXSW Film Festival at the end of March.
