“What we need now is for you to put an end to this…” Brainstorm Media has unveiled an official trailer for an indie apocalyptic survival thriller made in Canada titled New Life, marking the debut of filmmaker John Rosman. This premiered at the Fantasia Film Festival up in Montreal last year, and is set for a US release on VOD starting in May. A mysterious woman on the run (starring HayleyErin as Jess), and the resourceful fixer assigned to bring her in. Their two unique stories inextricably link, as the stakes of the pursuit rise to apocalyptic proportions. Soon it spirals toward a harrowing confrontation between the two women. She’s on the run some kind of disease, but is there really a disease? Or something else. Also starring Sonya Walger and Tony Amendola. Reviews from last year say: “This piece of deeply moving, bittersweet, and terrifying horror filmmaking will embed itself in your heart like a sliver of glass… Go in with an open mind and get ready for your jaw to drop.” That’s a kicker that should make anyone curious about wanting to see this film.
Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for John Rosman’s film New Life, direct from Brainstorm’s YouTube:
Jess is a woman on the run, desperate to cross the Canadian border to escape her past. On her tail is Elsa, a resourceful agent, whose recent life-altering diagnosis leaves her one step behind Jess. As their chase narrows to the mountains of the Pacific Northwest, holes in Elsa’s investigation begin to fill with fresh bodies. Soon the pursuit spirals toward its harrowing confrontation between the two women, in search of meaning and redemption, on the razor’s edge of catastrophe. New Life is written and directed by newcomer Canadian filmmaker John Rosman, making his feature directorial debut with this project. Produced by T. Justin Ross and Mike Marchlewski. This initially premiered at the 2023 Montreal Fantasia Film Festival and at FrightFest last year. Brainstorm Media will debut John Rosman’s New Life film in select US theaters + on VOD starting on May 3rd, 2024 coming soon this summer movie season. Look any good? Want to watch?
