In honor of the movie’s forthcoming home video release, Fango is proud to present the above exclusive clip. In it, a poor woman is tied to a chair with the killer making it very clear that things can get much, much worse if she doesn’t play by his rules. It’s grimly intimate and offers but a taste of what this movie has to offer viewers. The full synopsis for Man Finds Tape reads as follows:
“Lucas Page’s (William Magnuson) viral YouTube channel “Man Finds Tape” features a series of creepy home videos. When he reaches out to his sister, Lynn (Kelsey Pribilski), with surveillance footage of a murder in their hometown, she reluctantly returns to help him investigate the homicide. In doing so, Lynn uncovers a disturbing secret tied to a decades-old supernatural phenomena that casts doubt on whether anyone in town can be trusted. The arrival of a stranger (Brian Villalobos) with destructive intentions forces Lynn to confront her family’s role in a terrifying legend tied to a deadly monster stalking Larkin, TX.”
Kelsey Pribilski (Lynn Page), William Magnuson (Lucas Page), John Gholson (Reverend Endicott Carr), Brian Villalobos (The Stranger) and Nell Kessler (Wendy Parker) make up the cast.
This movie got a helping hand from some A-list talent, with The Black Phone writer C. Robert Cargill and his wife Jessica Cargill serving as executive producers. Due Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead (The Endless) also served as producers, alongside the likes of David Lawson Jr., Ashley Landavazo, Nate Bolotin, Nick Spicer, Aram Tertzakian, Maxime Cottray and James Shapiro.
Man Finds Tape played at the Tribeca Film Festival last year as part of its festival run, where it garnered a lot of praise from critics. It initially hit theaters in December following that successful, buzzy festival run but will now be available to a much wider audience. Plus, horror fans will have the chance to add this one to their shelves. For those interested in a physical copy, you can also check out the Blu-ray and DVD cover art below.
