Follow The Tapes.
One of the new horror movies premiering at SXSW this month is Jacob Gentry‘s Broadcast Signal Intrusion, billed as “an unsettling journey into our collective technological nightmares, confronting our deepest, darkest fears of both man and machine.”
The film will be World Premiering at SXSW 2021 on Tuesday, March 16 at 9pm EST, and the poster art that was designed by Drusilla Adeline / Sister Hyde has been unveiled today.
“While logging tapes of decades-old TV broadcasts, video archivist James discovers a surreal and disturbing clip that James believes is the product of a mysterious broadcast signal hacking. His discovery takes a sinister turn when he tracks down similar broadcast intrusions that send him on an obsessive mission. Now James must confront two very real possibilities: that the videos may be clues to a crime beyond all comprehension; and that whoever was behind them may be very aware that James is coming uncomfortably close to the truth.”
The official press release notes, “Broadcast Signal Intrusion was inspired by actual broadcast interruptions that occurred in Chicago in the late 1980s, and remain unsolved to this day.”
Harry Shum Jr. (Glee, Crazy Rich Asians), Chris Sullivan (This Is Us), and Kelley Mack (The Walking Dead) star in Broadcast Signal Intrusion, a Queensbury Pictures Production.
Tim Woodall and Phil Drinkwater wrote the script.
