Looking like a tense episode of “24,” the upcoming suspense thriller The Desperate Hour received a brand new official trailer today, along with a release date and poster art.
Unfolding in real time, The Desperate Hour is said to be a “riveting and pulse pounding” thriller from award-winning director Phillip Noyce (Sliver, The Bone Collector, Salt).
“Recently widowed mother Amy Carr (Academy Award®-nominee Naomi Watts) is doing her best to restore normalcy to the lives of her young daughter and teenage son in their small town. As she’s on a jog in the woods, she finds her town thrown into chaos as a shooting takes place at her son’s school.
“Miles away, on foot in the dense forest, Amy desperately races against time to save her son.”
The film comes to Theaters & On Demand February 25. Watch the trailer below.
Chris Sparling (Buried, Greenland) wrote the film, formerly titled Lakewood.
