First trailer out for Dark Was the Night (USA - 2014), the horror thriller genre film directed by Jack Heller (Enter Nowhere), known in film circles more as a producer (Condemned, Bad Milo!, Homecoming). The screenplay is by Tyler Hisel, while the director himself handled the production of the film along with Dallas Sonnier and Stefan Nowicki.
The cast of Dark Was the Night consists of Kevin Durand (Resident Evil: Retribution, Legion), Lukas Haas (Little Red Riding Hood), Bianca Kajlich, Nick Damici (Stake Land), Heath Freeman, Sabina Gadecki and Steve Agee.
The story sees as the site of strange phenomena the isolated town of Maiden Woods, where a lumber company has upset the balance of nature in the woods. Right there in the icy forest lurks a dark and evil presence that will sow horror by terrorizing the locals. The local sheriff will try to keep calm while investigating the strange events that have occurred.
A new monster never before seen in film and belonging to American folklore will appear in the film.
Dark Was the Night is inspired by strange phenomena that occurred in England in 1855 and were known as "The Devil's Footprints." During the night of that year, after a very heavy snowfall, footprints attributable to goat's hooves, and therefore referred to as "Devil's Footprints," appeared over an area of about 100 miles.
