Serial killers can be anywhere.
Relativity Media has nabbed the North American rights to Warren Skeels‘ thriller The Man in the White Van from Garrison Film and Legion M.
The pic stars Sean Astin (Stranger Things), Ali Larter (The Rookie), Madison Wolfe (The Conjuring 2) and more, the film is inspired by a series of true crimes by Billy Mansfield Jr which that shook the nation in the 1970s and delves into the harrowing experiences of Annie Williams (Wolfe), a spirited family girl, whose carefree existence is turned upside down as she finds herself stalked by an ominous man in a white van. Prone to exaggeration, her parents’ disbelief in her tales of being followed leads to a terrifying Halloween nightmare.
“The Man in the White Van is a flat-out frightening story with an incredible ensemble cast, and the teams behind it have produced a film that’s both visceral and topical,” said Michael Arrieta, Chief Operating Officer at Relativity Media. “Watching this in a crowded theater is truly the best way for viewers to experience this tension-packed thrill ride as realized by Warren and his talented crew.”
“We are beyond excited to team up with Relativity to bring this film to theaters nationwide, where every suspense-filled moment and heart-pounding scare is magnified by the collective experience,” said Legion M’s co-founder and CEO, Paul Scanlan. “Our Legion M community craves theatrical experiences and this film delivers on all fronts.”
The film will arrive in theaters on October 11th. Stay tuned to Horror News Network for more on The Man In The White Van.
