Following its debut at San Diego Comic-Con earlier this week, 1091 Pictures have acquired all North American rights to the psychological horror film Nix, from Sharknado director Anthony C. Ferrante, his first dramatic horror film since the 2005 hit Boo.
Nix will be released on September 27th, 2022 on all major digital platforms.
Inspired by Germanic folklore, the story of Nix follows a tragedy at a mysterious lake and its frightening consequences as a shattered family unravels the truth.
"While Jack Coyle struggles to keep his shattered family together, a strange and powerful entity reveals itself again, opening the wounds for another tragedy to occur. As Jack deals with the consequences, he also must protect his young niece from this frightening creature which threatens to destroy everyone."
The film is said to be "a modern-day horror movie dealing with trauma and addiction and how a tragedy twenty years prior tears apart a family."
"Once we landed on the concept of Nix and realized its potential, I was excited to return to my horror roots with this elevated, original horror movie," said Ferrante. "It was also a chance to dig deep into these fractured, haunted characters and explore the depth and emotion within this dark setting while still delivering solid thrills and chills. I’m very proud of the film we created and excited to work with 1091 Pictures to unleash it this fall just in time for Halloween."
Written by Skyler Caleb, James Zimbardi, Woodrow Wilson Hancock III and Ferrante, Nix stars James Zimbardi (Awaken the Shadowman), Dee Wallace (Halloween, E.T.), Michael Pare (Streets of Fire), Skyler Caleb (Waking), Angie Teodora Dick (Zombie Tidal Wave) and introduces Niesha Renee Guilbot.
Nix is financed by executive producer Gary Rubens and is produced by Hancock.
