Trailer for Solet’s GRACE Follow-Up, DARK SUMMER is Here!

IFC Midnight is releasing Paul Solet’s follow-up to the film Grace, a film that initially made headlines back in 2009, Dark Summer. If you have never seen Grace, you should make a point to see it as soon as possible. Dark Summer is a film that I have been looking forward to for a while and got even more excited when I heard Solet on Adam Green and Joe Lynch’s podcast The Movie Crypt and he mentioned that Dark Summer would be released in 2015.

Come to find out, Dark Summer is going to be in theaters, On Demand and on iTunes this Friday, January 9. We got the trailer and some images for you to tide you over until Friday.

DARK SUMMER combines the supernatural terror of classic horrors THE SHINING and POLTERGEIST, with the tension and modern cool of DISTURBIA. Summer is a time to relax, unwind, take a vacation, and be free. But 17 year old Daniel Austin gets none of that because his obsessive online stalking of his classmate and crush, Mona Wilson, got him put on house arrest for the whole summer. So, no cell phone, no Internet, no leaving the property, and especially no Mona. Then Daniel’s single mother has to go on a long business trip, and Daniel has the place to himself.

Daniel figures out a way to piggyback onto his neighbors’ wireless signal and, believing he’s surfing off the grid, uses his time to check in on his friends – and Mona… But what Daniel didn’t expect is for Mona to check up on him. And what she does next shakes him to his very core.

And then things start to happen. Daniel receives mysterious packages in the mail, hears phantom noises, sees inanimate objects move, and feels a strange presence in the house…

DARK SUMMER is a highly original twist on the supernatural summer season terror.
