The Toronto Film Festival has become runner up to importance on all things indie horror. It was learned that Brightlight Pictures’ They Wait was officially accepted as Canadas first picture inside. Written by Carl Bessai and Doug Taylor, story by Trevor Markwart. They Wait is directed by Ernie Barbarash that brought us Cube Zero, Stir of Echoes: The Homecoming. A supernatural thriller starring Jaime King, They Wait is inspired by true events and tells the terrifying tale of one family’s life-threatening encounter with angry spirits during Hungry Ghost Month, a festival still celebrated in Taiwan but which has virtually disappeared from mainland China.
