Bloody Disgusting has a first look at the psychological thriller Exploited, which is being handled worldwide by Darclight Films at the ongoing virtual Cannes market.
“Exploited is a provocative story of obsession set on a college campus against the backdrop of a voyeuristic hacker. Real-world fears such as personal privacy and camming are explored in this thought-provoking thriller.”
The film is directed by Scary Movie and House of Wax actor Jon Abrahams and written by 12-time Tony Award winner and film producer Carl Moellenberg (Wakefield) and Anthony Del Negro (Lazy Susan, Anarchy Parlor).
Exploited stars up and coming actors Sierra McCormick (Amazon Studios’ The Vast of Night, IFC Midnight’s We Need to Do Something), Makenzie Vega (SAW), Leah Pipes (The CW’s “The Originals,” Summit Distribution’s Sorority Row), and Spencer List (“Fringe”), Will Peltz (Blumhouse’s Unfriended), Hannah Rose May (Shooter, Ballers), Jordan Ver Hoeve (Netflix’s Huge in France), Andrew Matthew Welch (Blumhouse’s MA), Colin Bates (The Girl from the North Country on Broadway), and Lisa Thornhill (The Family Man).
“Exploited has such a captivating and haunting thriller,” said Darclight Films’ chairman Gary Hamilton.
“Our villain is living out their own twisted version of Rear Window, in this stressful world of today’s millennials—who are also exploring their sexuality. A script for a sequel has already been written,” added Anthony Del Negro.
Moellenberg and Del Negro also serve as producers, alongside Shane O’Brien (Animal, The Boy) and Zach O’Brien (Purity Falls, Secrets at the Lake).
