"Beware the eerie lure of the 'Are You There?' challenge – it's a perilous path that may lead to your untimely demise! Dark Sky Films has unveiled the official trailer for an indie horror-thriller titled 'Are You There?,' masterminded by indie filmmaker Kim Noonan. This chilling flick will enjoy a limited theatrical run and become available on Video On Demand (VOD) this February, for those brave enough to seek it out.
Paranormal psychology student Rosa Gonzalez ignites a ritual candle, an ancient conduit to the realm of the deceased. As she utters the fateful phrase, 'Are You There?' she unwittingly unleashes a demonic game of life-or-death, akin to a macabre version of Twenty Questions. The candle's flame signals the commencement of a grim quiz, with each question posing a mortal risk. As the wax melts away, so too does Rosa's grip on survival. She soon realizes that some questions are better left buried in the depths of darkness...
Starring Laura Sollet as the intrepid Rosa, alongside Eva Meyerson, Madison Geiger, Mbeng Klovis, Chase Bridges, and Kay Galvin, 'Are You There?' might be a straight-to-video genre offering, but it dares to innovate with its chilling game premise.
Elsewhere, twin sisters Rose and Azalea, along with their friend Brooks, find themselves ensnared in a supernatural blackout where monsters roam with impunity. Their sole beacon of hope shines from the fragile glow of their cellphones. Meanwhile, Rosa's fateful candle-lighting ritual initiates a harrowing game that could cost her everything.
Directed by Kim Noonan, whose previous credit includes the film 'Nyctophobia' and numerous short films, 'Are You There?' boasts a screenplay penned by Brian S. Tedeschi and Vicki Vass. The film is produced by Mike Meade, Kim Noonan, Koji Steven Sakai, Brian S. Tedeschi, Vicki Vass, and Stanley Yung. Dark Sky Films will unleash Noonan's harrowing horror film 'Are You There?' in select US theaters and on VOD, starting February 7th, 2025. Dare you watch?"
