Mill Creek Entertainment will be bringing director Chris Ethridge’s sci-fi/horror thriller, Haven’s End, to the DVD marketplace on Nov. 3. And that can’t come soon enough.
If you like chillers, things that go bump in the night and haunted house thrillers (set in the spooky woods), then you are absolutely going to love Chris Etheridge’s Haven’s End. He reels you in, introduces the character, the set-up, the retreat to safety and then, at about the mid-point, when you are totally invested in what “might” be going on, he brings the horror hammer down!!
OK, let’s start with the set-up. Out of the blue, cities start exploding, not like nuclear explosives, but more like random “Mother of All Bombs” (MOABs) going off. The action begins in Atlanta, wham, downtown in a fireball, and another, and another … the same thing is happening all over the country. What’s going on … that’s a mystery.
Next, the characters. We have Alison (played by talented voice actress Catherine Taber, whose last on-screen film was also by Chris Ethridge back in 2014, Attack of the Morningside Monster), she’s a doctor, who is engaged to a combat vet by the name of Derek (Anthony Nguyen) and she also has her good friend Jessi (Megan Hayes).
They decide to flee Atlanta before a MOAB falls on them … they are hurried along by things spiraling rapidly out of control. That leads them to her friend Harry’s place (Robert Pralgo — Avengers: Endgame, Avengers: Infinity War, American Made, Unravelled), who is a little edgy. Pretty soon looters arrive, Jessi is shot and it’s time to go.
As it turns out, Alison has “family” property somewhere in rural Georgia (filming took place in Appling, about 15 miles from Augusta) and so they head there and before you can say, “hello,” Harry is shot by Hannah (Hannah Fierman — Evil Little Things, The Secret Garden, American Hell), the sketchy girlfriend of Alison’s next-to-worthless brother, Kevin (Alex Zuko), who has already set up shop.
Harry will succumb to his wounds, tension will grow … and then the real horror begins. There are creepy things in the wood. Tension grows. The things get closer. And then … not so fast. Nov. 3, Haven’s End (with Digital Copy) on DVD from Mill Creek Entertainment to find out.
