Daniel Robbins‘ thriller Pledge asks how far would you go to be popular? Witness a standard hazing take a dark turn for the worst when IFC Midnight releases the film in limited theaters and on VOD platforms January 11th, 2019.
"Three friends get the chance to live the college dream when they’re invited to join an elite fraternity—but first they’ll have to survive the hazing from hell. Freshman social misfits Ethan (Phillip Andre Botello), David (Zack Weiner), and Justin (Zachery Byrd) are desperate to improve their terminally uncool reputations by pledging one of their university’s prestigious Greek houses. When every frat on campus turns them down, they are unexpectedly recruited by a shadowy social club offering them access to an exclusive world of raging parties, eligible coeds, and VIP social status. The catch? A sadistic initiation ritual that goes from depraved to deadly over the course of 48 booze- and blood-soaked hours."
Robins directed the film from a screenplay by Zachary Weiner, Pledge also stars Joe Gallagher, Jean-Louis Droulers, Erica Boozer, Aaron Dalla Villa, Cameron Cowperthwaite, and Jesse Pimentel.
