TERROR FILMS Asks You To RSVP To "INVITED"
In the past few years, horror filmmakers have been harnessing the chilling intimacy of Zoom calls to craft frightening narratives that have dived headfirst into the depths of modern fears. With modern technology constantly improving with each passing day, filmmakers are exploring new and innovative ways to terrify audiences across the world by exploiting the vulnerability and isolation inherent in video calls. By blurring the lines between the digital and physical worlds (and sometimes even the world of the supernatural), these horror films create a sense of lingering unease that resonates with contemporary anxieties surrounding technology, surveillance, and the erosion of the privacy we tend to take for granted. The use of familiar interfaces like Zoom adds a layer of realism that amplifies the horror, turning everyday settings into a foundation of terror where the boundaries between the all-too-real and the paranoid-fueled imagination blur, leaving horror movie viewers on edge long after the screen fades to black.
TERROR FILMS RELEASING has teamed with writer Monica La Vella and director Navin Ramaswaran to release the 105ive Films found footage horror film, “Invited”.
Starring Martina Schabron and Elena Zavet, the film follows a reluctant mother who attends her daughter’s Zoom elopement, but she and the rest of the family in attendance quickly realize the groom is part of a Russian cult with deadly intentions. Ramaswaran shared his thoughts about the making of the film in a recent press release:
“The structure of Invited’s screenplay called for shooting in longer takes, as long as 30 scenes sometimes. Watching our actors go through a roller coaster of emotions uninterrupted was fascinating to experience and that energy comes through in a really fascinating way.”
TFR will premiere the film on their YouTube Terror Channel on May 31st, including a live chat with the filmmaker. The film will then roll out across multiple platforms including Amazon, Tubi TV, PlayNow Media, UDU TV, Kings of Horror, and many more on June 21st.
