Vertigo Releasing Unleashes Faux True-Crime Horror STRANGE HARVEST this October

                                             

 

Vertigo Releasing has confirmed that STRANGE HARVEST, the disturbing faux true-crime docu-horror from director Stuart Ortiz (Grave Encounters), will debut on Digital Download next month. The film lands in the UK on 27th October and in Australia and New Zealand on 29th October.

 

Blurring the lines between realism and horror fantasy, Strange Harvest follows detectives Joe Kirby and Lexi Taylor as they investigate a grisly murder scene in suburban San Bernardino. A family has been bound, bled, and left beneath a cryptic blood symbol...the calling card of “Mr. Shiny,” a killer thought to have vanished 15 years earlier. As new victims surface, including a swimmer trapped with live leeches and a flayed body staged in a park, the case spirals into something far more sinister, hinting at cosmic phenomena and forces beyond human understanding.

 

The film features an ensemble cast including Peter Zizzo, Terri Apple, Andy Lauer, Matthew Peschio, Janna Cardia, Thomas Wolfe Jr, Tim Shelburne, Christina Helene Bra, and LA Williams.

 

Currently boasting a 91% Rotten Tomatoes score, STRANGE HARVEST is already drawing critical praise. Film Threat calls it “a brutal, well-crafted descent into depravity,” while Dread Central hails it as “phenomenal, disturbing, and creepy,” and Collider praises it as “organic, unnerving, and proficiently grounded as a modern criminal nightmare.”

 

STRANGE HARVEST (94 mins) will be available to rent and buy digitally in the UK from 27th October and in Australia and New Zealand from 29th October.
