Here is our first look at a new thriller-horror film, Last The Night, that will be sure to give us chills. It was previewed at the 27th annual Sacramento International Film Festival this past weekend. The film, which was previously called Pacerville, is directed by Nick Leisure. Leisure was the director for the recent drama/thriller, A Clear Shot.
Last The Night stars Brian Austin Green who is best known for his lovable portrayal of David Silver in Beverly Hills, 90120. More recently fans will recognize Green from parts in Smallville, Desperate Housewives, BH90210, The Conners, and Dancing with The Stars (with his real-life partner, Sharna Burgess). The film also stars Makena Taylor from Skyfire and Acoryé White from One and the Same. Additional cast includes David Valdes, Julia Quang, Eve Mauro, Glenn Plummer, and Rafael Siegel.
Watch the movie trailer below:
According to the press release, the film is set in the early days of the pandemic. It follows high school history teacher John Dunbar (Green)who spends his days drinking and teaching Zoom classes from his crummy, one-bedroom apartment. He’s depressed, teetering on being unstable, and recently separated from his wife and daughter.
To make matters worse, four of his students, Sadie (Taylor), Trevor (White), Genesis (Quang), and Miguel (Valdes) talk smack about Dunbar while hatching a plan to break into their empty school during the night. Teenagers will be teenagers. Knowing that all school facilities have been shut down because of COVID 19 and bored from the lockdown caused by it, these kids want to party. Dunbar, eavesdropping on a private Zoom teacher’s window, seethes at his students’ plans and plots diabolical revenge.
What follows is a tense cat and mouse game as Dunbar stalks and tracks the students one by one inside the school. Interspersing evil history lessons with his disintegration of sanity, Dunbar is hellbent on dispensing his own deadly brand of education. All filled with vengeance and bloodshed. The hunt is clearly on, and innocent students are the night’s prey. The terrorized students find themselves in a fight for their lives to survive these hallways of horror.
Dunbar, indeed, has some life OR death lessons he’s ready to teach…
The movie will have its local premiere on June 30, 2022, with it going country-wide on July 1. For those living in the UK, the film will be doing a theatrical release as well on July 1.
