On Tuesday, Cinedigm and Bloody Disgusting announced that its horror film “The Outwaters” will release on digital and stream exclusively on SCREAMBOX starting this Friday, February 17.
Written, directed by, and starring Robbie Banfitch, memory cards unearthed in a remote stretch of the Mojave Desert tell the story of four travelers who vanished during a sun-drenched camping trip. One night, everything changes when the foursome is sent on a mind-bending voyage of unrelenting terror into a world of darkness that no human was ever meant to see.
The film stars Banfitch, Angela Basolis, Michelle May, Scott Schamell, and Leslie Ann Banfitch and features original music by Salem Belladonna.
During its theatrical run this past weekend, according to social media, the film set off Apple Watch heart monitors, made people uncomfortably dizzy, and created in-theater anxiety.
Critics are responding to “The Outwaters,” which is currently 71% Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes.
A New York Times Critic’s Pick, “The Outwaters” was called “a movie that lavishes as much attention on its setup as its payoff.”
JoBlo said, “‘The Outwaters’ does not relent for the final forty-five minutes” and that “the film’s final ten minutes are amongst the most gruesome and uncomfortable moments in any horror film I have ever seen.”
“The Outwaters” was produced by Beau J. Genot and Banfitch, with Robert Abramoff serving as the executive producer.
