Sometimes the only way to help protect the future is to reexamine the past, no matter how painful it for the person who experienced it the first time. That’s certainly the case for actor Blaise Embry’s protagonist, Keegan Dark, in the mystery thriller, ‘The Dark Place,’ which is set to have a limited theatrical release later this month. In honor of the film’s upcoming distribution, ShockYa is premiering an exclusive clip from the drama.
‘The Dark Place’ is set to be shown in New York theaters between October 18-24, and then in L.A. on Saturday, November 9. The movie was written, helmed and produced by Jody Wheeler in his feature film directorial debut. He reunited with his regular producing collaborator, Steve Parker, to get the project into production.
The following synopsis for ‘The Dark Place’ has been released:
Long estranged from his widowed mother, Keegan Dark (Embry) has the uncanny ability to remember his life in videographic detail. This is both a blessing and a curse, and keeps him at odds with his family and loved ones.
Returning home with his boyfriend in tow to make amends with his mother, Keegan’s shocked to discover she has remarried. His family now includes a step-father and step-brother, and Keegan quickly surmises they aren’t up to any good.
Keegan’s investigation into their past is derailed when his mother drops into a coma, his boyfriend seemingly leaves him and the town’s sheriff targets him as the most likely culprit. With allies scarce and time running out, Keegan must fight-and use his remarkable mind-to unravel the secrets that threaten to destroy him.
