A batch of images from Anna Camp’s supernatural horror movie From Black have been revealed as Shudder shifts the release date
Last month, we heard that a supernatural horror movie called From Black, starring Anna Camp of the Pitch Perfect films, the HBO television series True Blood, and A Creepshow Holiday Special, would be available to watch on the Shudder streaming service on April 13th. Now it’s being reported (by Deadline, among others) that Shudder has pushed the release of From Black back a couple weeks to April 28th – and along with the new release date news, a batch of images from the film have also arrived online! Our friends at Bloody Disgusting got their hands on several From Black images, and a select few of them can be seen at the bottom of this article.
The narrative feature debut of Thomas Marchese, who previously directed the documentary Fallen, From Black will tell the story of what happens when a young mother, crushed by guilt and shame after the disappearance of her young son five years previously, is offered a bizarre opportunity to learn the truth and set things right. The movie asks whether she is she willing to pay the terrifying price for a chance to hold her boy again.
Camp is joined in the cast by Jennifer Lafleur (Big Little Lies), John Ales (Euphoria), Travis Hammer (Godless), and Richie Montgomery (Ozark).
Marchese wrote the script with Jessup Flower and is producing the project for Dark Room Films. Vincent Cardinale and K7 Entertainment’s Kelly Frazier are also producing. Camp serves as executive producer alongside Cesar Mercado, Humberto Carillo, and Amp’s James Norrie, Bob Portal, and Inderpal Singh. Amp is handling the world sales.
Marchese previously told Deadline the idea behind From Black was to “take a dark police procedural and cross it into a flat-out terrifying supernatural horror story. And I really feel we have nailed the tone and hit that mark in a big way.“
Filming took place in Natchez, Mississippi. Speaking with The Natchez Democrat, Frazier said that watching From Black is meant to be a very emotional experience for viewers, as “it shows us the lengths a mother will go in order to find her missing child.” Cardinale informed the newspaper that Camp’s character Cora is a recovering drug addict who is “desperate for closure and saddled by crushing guilt after the disappearance of her young son.”
