It comes for the light! It comes for the light!” Vertical has revealed an official trailer for an indie sci-fi film from the UK titled Light, marking the feature directorial debut of filmmaker Matt Woollard. It’s set to open next week on VOD in the US & Canada if anyone wants to give it a look. “Sometimes it’s better to be in the dark.”
Survivors from an interstellar transport ship accident have to work together after crash landing on an inhospitable planet. Woollard explains that he was inspired partially by A Quiet Place: “the idea of doing for light what they did for sound” with this crew trying to figure out what happened and how to survive on this mysterious alien planet. Light stars Christine Roche, Gia Lily, Tedroy Newell, and James Woollard as the boy, plus Anna Swan.
For a super low budget sci-fi film, this actually looks good. The gigantic light creatures are crazy cool. I’m curious to see how this film plays out – yep I’ll be watching.
