Sam wakes up, still in her scrubs, in a cornfield with a revolver and one bullet beside her. While she’s trying to figure out how she got there, or where “there” is, Tyler stumbles across her. They in turn run into other survivors, Ryan, Ethan, Rachel, and Denise. Eventually, they’re joined by Cameron.

It’s all very familiar territory, but Moore works it well. The cornfield is a wonderfully...

Exclusive: Lionsgate has taken North American and UK rights to Emerson Moore’s feature film directorial debut Escape the Field.

The psychological thriller finds six strangers who suddenly awake in a remote, endless cornfield, stripped of their possessions and left with seemingly random items, ranging from an old revolver with a single bullet to an antique lantern. As klaxon sirens blare in the distance and traps appear at every turn, the group realizes they have been plunged into a cat-and-mouse game with an unseen evil, and survival depends upon solving a diabolical — and deadly — puzzle. The pic is scheduled for a multi-platform release this May.

Also written by Moore, Joshua Dobkin and Sean Wathen, the movie stars Shane West (Gotham), Theo Rossi (True Story), Jordan Claire Robbins (The Umbrella Academy), Tahira Sharif (The Haunting of Bly Manor), Julian Feder (The Doorman) and Elena Juatco (Jann).

The actors join previously announced stars Jordan Claire Robbins (Netflix’s “Umbrella Academy”), Shane West, Theo Rossi and Elena Juacto. The film is directed by Emerson Moore, who is billed as a co-writer alongside Sean Wathen and Joshua Dobkin.

Sean Wathen and Joshua Dobkin have sold their latest script Case 2317 to Lucky Day Studios. Described as Paranormal Activity meets Ghost Hunters , the story follows a team of paranormal investigators who enter the most haunted prison in the world, Eastern State Penitentiary. Obviously, something unusual goes down or there wouldn't be a need to tell the story; sadly, no more details where provided other than the story is told from multiple Pov cameras. Wathen and Dobkin previously sold The Field to Stone Village (the company behind Turistas ) in early 2009. Read more about that here . Case 2317 , which will hopefully be re-titled to avoid any connection to Case 39 or sounding like a Session 9 rip-off, is expected to begin shooting this summer.
