THE LATENT IMAGE Is Coming to North America

Cinephobia Releasing, the new film distribution company founded by Ray (TLA Releasing, Artsploitation Films) Murray, announces the acquisition of the UK gay thriller The Latent Image. 

Adapted from his 2019 short film of the same name, Alexander McGregor Birrell directs this horror/thriller about a writer who lets an injured stranger into his house and the mounting sexual tension and fear that ensue. The film will play both the genre and LGBTQ+ festival circuits beginning this spring into summer. The film will also have a limited theatrical run before being released on on Blu-ray and VOD this fall. 
 
Synopsis: Joshua Tonks stars as Ben, a writer who retreats to a remote cabin to begin writing a horror novel. His isolation is interrupted when a mysterious wounded man (Jay Clift) arrives at his door. Sympathetic but wary, he invites him in where the two soon engage in an erotic and increasingly dangerous cat-and-mouse game. Reality blurs with imagination in this taut, at times violent thriller.
  “Unflinching and brutal…the payoff is definitely worth it,
with some images that will stay with the audience.”
