The feature debut of director Barnaby Clay, Magnet Releasing’s The Seeding centers on a hiker who gets lost in the desert and seeks refuge with a woman who is living alone.
He soon discovers that she might not be there willingly…
Today, as the film releases in theaters and on PVOD, Magnet has exclusively provided Bloody Disgusting with a sneak preview clip that you can watch below.
Clay tells us, “The film has been gestating for a long time, so it’s thrilling for people to finally get to experience it. I say ‘experience’ because I set out to make The Seeding as immersive as possible. It’s not a film to feel removed from, it’s an experience that drags you though the sand, the heat, the decay, and also natural beauty of the world it takes place in.
“I had a similar feeling watching certain films from the ’70s, mostly from Australia; Walkabout, Picnic At Hanging Rock, Wake in Fright – I left these movies sunburnt and destroyed.”
“I was also struck by films from the same period such as Deliverance, that expose the male psyche in its most primal reactive form,” Clay continues. “Who knows how you’d react under a similar set of circumstances, I probably wouldn’t fare too well.”
Scott Haze (Venom) and Kate Lyn Sheil (V/H/S) star in The Seeding.
