Grindstone Entertainment has picked up all North American rights to the new suspenseful thriller "The Mooring" to be released by Lionsgate Home Entertainment. The deal was negotiated by Stan Wertlieb of Grindstone Entertainment and Miira Paasilinna of The Yellow Affair.Wertlieb said "The Mooring is not just another scary film. It is a story of a young woman's survival against an evil antagonist, powerfully played by Thomas Wilson Brown. The audience is witness to Evil, the likes we are rarely exposed to. This is an edge of the seat thriller".
"The Mooring" sets the heart racing from the opening scene, as within seconds we witness the violent abduction of a young girl. Ten years later a group of gadget addicted teenage girls come together for a program that is held on a houseboat up the spooky St Joe's river, surrounded by thick claustrophobic Idaho forest. Their program is disturbed by the arrival of an odd couple, who moors beside them. Chaos ensues, as Nancy, the program leader, is murdered before the girls' eyes. Suddenly, the girls are running for their lives, as a brutal killer - an obsessed man looking for his new sweetheart - tracks them down one by one.
"The Mooring" is directed by veteran actor Glenn Withrow ("The Outsiders") and stars Hallie Todd (Disney's "Lizzie McGuire") and is produced by Ivy Withrow and Penelope L. Foster for In House Media Film Partners. The film was written by Glenn Withrow, Hallie Todd and Ivy Withrow.
