THE ATTICUS INSTITUTE: Anchor Bay Investigates Demonic Possession
Anchor Bay Entertainment will be releasing Chris Sparling's directorial debut The Atticus Institute on DVD and Blu-ray on January 20th, 2015. Sparling wrote the Ryan-Reynolds-in-a-box horror film Buried.
Dubiously billed as 'The Only Case of Demonic Possession Recognized by the U.S Government' the film was produced by Peter Safran. Safran produced Buried, along with Annabelle and The Conjuring; so there is a background in horror film there.
Then there are a handful of those awful spoof movies going back to 2000's Scary Movie and an upcoming spoof of the Fast & Furious films called Superfast! Just saying.
Dr. Henry West founded The Atticus Institute in the early 1970s to test individuals expressing supernatural abilities - E.S.P., clairvoyance, psychokinesis, etc. Despite witnessing several noteworthy cases, nothing could have prepared Dr. West and his colleagues for Judith Winstead. She outperformed every subject they had ever studied - soon gaining the attention of the U.S. Department of Defense, who subsequently took control of the research facility.The more experiments they conducted on Judith, the clearer it became that her abilities were the manifestation of evil forces within her, prompting the government to take measures to weaponize this force. But they soon discovered there are powers that exist in this world that simply cannot be controlled. Now the details of the inexplicable events that occurred within The Atticus Institute are being made public after remaining classified for nearly forty years.
The Atticus Institute stars Rya Kihlstedt ("Dexter"), William Mapother ("Lost", The Grudge), Harry Groener ("Buffy The Vampire Slayer"), John Rubinstein ("Angel") and Sharon Maughan (The Bank Job).
