John Schneider (The Dukes of Hazzard) and Academy Award nominee Kathleen Quinlan (Apollo 13) lead the cast of The Stairs, coming to theaters for one-night-only this week.
The press release promises, “The Stairs blends the sweeping natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest with the stomach-churning gore of Hollywood in this modern-day movie.”
Arriving in theaters for a one-night event on August 12 from Cinedigm and Fathom Events, Bloody Disgusting has an exclusive clip in which someone on the run gets tripped up and ends up going face-first into filth and human remains.
“In 1997, a young boy is out hunting with his grandfather (Schneider), when he stumbles upon a mysterious staircase deep in the forest. The subsequent disappearance leaves locals baffled as to the fate of the wayward pair. Twenty years later, a group of hikers set off on an ambitious trail, taking them deep into a secluded stretch of woods. Overcome with the beauty of their surroundings, they are blinded to a sinister presence lurking just beyond the trees. As the mountain terrain pulls them deeper, the group unknowingly stumbles upon a long-forgotten evil and find themselves coming face to face with the thing that nightmares are made of.”
Adam Korson (SurrealEstate, Imposters), Brent Bailey (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., NCIS) Stacey Oristano (Friday Night Lights, In Plain Sight), Tyra Colar (Cougar Town, The Mentalist), and festival winner Josh Crotty (Scandal, Shockwave) also star in the film.
Peter “Drago” Tiemann directed The Stairs.
