    Cobweb to premiere exclusively on Lionsgate Play on 27 October

    Mumbai: Secrets from the past are back to haunt! What starts off as just some regular nightmares for Peter, unravels into a web of lies and secrets that pushes him into a corner, questioning his trust in his own parents. Lionsgate Play’s Cobweb is an intense horror film with heart-stopping jump scares and a storyline that is bound to shock you to your very core. Starring the iconic Antony Starr and Lizzy Caplan, Cobweb is set to release on 27 October exclusively on Lionsgate Play.

    Talking about reading Cobweb’s script, fan-favorite Antony Starr said, “At a certain point I turned the page and went ‘Wait What?’ And it was the ‘pump the brakes, record scratch’ moment when I realized Oh My God, everything that I thought was something else and so you know I got really excited about it, and like a rule of thumb for me is, if I’m reading a script, do I read the script and find holes and go Well that doesn’t make sense or do I read a script and go oh, wow, like like, I have ideas around what’s already there. And this is one of those cases so it’s been amazing.”

    Directed by Samuel Bodin, Cobweb releases exclusively on Lionsgate Play this 27 October.

    Airlock is sequel of The Tunnel

    MUMBAI: A sequel to the Australian horror film The Tunnel is on the cards. The film’s working will be on a similar funding model as the original. The Tunnel, created with the 135K Project, was intended to raise $135,000 by selling frames to the movie at a dollar a frame.

    Based on the success of the scheme, the team, Distracted Media will produce a new film. Airlock is a claustrophobic science fiction film in the vein of Alien. The team has also received funding from Screen Australia to produce the sequel of The Tunnel, called The Tunnel: Dead End.

    “The Tunnel: Dead End is a great opportunity to take Distracted Media into a different playing field but as producers we still very much believe in the basic principles of the 135k Project.

    Having a more mainstream film in The Tunnel: Dead End will enable us to up the stakes significantly with “Airlock” which will hopefully raise the bar for our free internet releases and what we can put back into their success,” filmmakers Enzo Tedeschi and Julian Harvey have reportedly said.

    Last year’s The Tunnel was released free online through bitTorrent on a subscription TV and on video on the same day. It was later followed by a limited theatrical release.
