New Life is a 2023 mystery horror thriller about a woman on the run and a fixer assigned to catch her. The movie is a character-driven story that upends traditional horror conventions through its intimate exploration of mortality.
John Rosman wrote and directed the movie, making his feature directorial debut.
The American Storyworks-Great Lakes Vacuum Supplies Unlimited production stars Sonya Walger, Hayley Erin, Tony Amendola, Ayanna Berkshire, Nick George, Blaine Palmer and Jeb Berrier.
Plot:
Jess (Hayley Erin) is a woman on the run, desperate to cross the Canadian border to escape her past. On her tail is fixer Elsa (Sonya Walger), a resourceful agent, whose recent life-altering diagnosis leaves her one step behind.
As their chase narrows to the mountains of the Pacific Northwest, holes in Elsa’s investigation begin to fill with fresh bodies. Soon the pursuit spirals toward its harrowing confrontation between the two women, in search of meaning and redemption, on the razor’s edge of catastrophe…
Release:
New Life had its world premiere at Fantasia last year. The movie was released theatrically and on VOD in the US by Brainstorm Media on May 3, 2024. It will be available in the UK on Digital on June 3rd.
