Terror Films looks to be a distributor to keep an eye on these days as the company has just announced another new acquisition for those of us in North America: Savageland, a thriller co-written/directed/produced by trio Simon Herbert, Phil Guidry, and David Whelan.

The movie was an official selection at 15 film festivals including the San Diego Comic-Con, Morbido Film Festival, and the New Orleans Horror Film Festival. At the NOHFF, Terror Films executive Jim Klock discovered Savagelandand stated: “What struck me about the film right away was the level of realism, the filmmaker’s ability to create a rich documentary style world, and a film with a feeling that we are watching something we maybe shouldn’t be watching.”

We always had a vision from the start, but Terror Films did what a great partner should do; it helped us expand that vision. We look forward to unleashing something genuinely creepy on audiences.”
