Richard Harmon Headlines Time-Rending Horror The Return

Upcoming horror/sci-fi hybrid The Return promises classic creepiness and space-time spooks in a teaser trailer premiere, out just in time for Halloween. The film stars Richard Harmon (The 100, I Still See You, Bates Motel, The Killing, and Continuum) as Rodger Emmerlich, a gifted college student who comes home to find that time doesn’t heal all wounds. Forgotten childhood horrors rear their ugly heads as he and girlfriend Beth (Sara Thompson of I Still See You and Nomis, and TV’s Burden of Truth) deal with the fallout.

“The Return starts as classic haunted house film, and as it progresses, the science fiction edge starts to bleed through. We wanted to take the haunting sub-genre, and really turn it on its ear,” says director BJ Verot. “I’m so excited for people to see it. The team behind the project was amazing, and I’m proud of what we were able to create together.” The movie, Verot’s feature directorial debut through the Telefilm: Talent to Watch Program, also
stars Echo Porisky (Channel Zero, Cheerleader Death Squad) and Marina Stephenson Kerr (Channel Zero, Cult of Chucky). The Talent to Watch Program – Funding of First Feature Films and Web Projects from
Emerging Filmmakers aims to support emerging filmmakers, accelerate their career development, and to allow them to develop an expertise in digital marketing and promotion of audiovisual projects.

The Return is scheduled for festival release mid 2019.
