Late Phases
Director Adrián García Bogliano | 2014 | 96 minutes | Drama, Thriller | English
Official Selection – SXSW 2014
A blind veteran moves into a secluded forest community, only to discover that recent attacks from the woods are being caused by a creature that is neither animal nor man.
Blind war veteran Ambrose McKinley (Nick Damici, Stake Land) has recently moved to Crescent Bay, a seemingly peaceful community on the outskirts of a dense forest. On his first night in his new home, McKinley hears his elderly neighbor attacked by something he’s convinced isn’t human. When the creature then kills his seeing eye dog, McKinley’s thirst for justice turns into a one-man vendetta against the monster that’s terrorizing his neighborhood. And when he’s stonewalled by both the police and his fellow residents, he decides to gear up and prepare to fight the beast one-on-one. Now it’s man vs myth as McKinley readies himself for what could be his final battle.
With a stunning lead performance from Damici as the take-no-prisoners McKinley and jaw-dropping practical special effects, director Adrian Garcia Bogliano’s LATE PHASES is a suspense thrill ride unlike any other.
