CHEAP THRILLS And THE BATTERY Among Titles In Raven Banner's Next Sinister Cinema Series

It was just the other day that we announced Raven Banner is including Cabin Fever: Patient Zero in this year's slate. And now we also have all the films included in their Sinister Cinema Series in partnership with Cineplex Entertainment. These films will enjoy one-night engagements at 28 cinemas across Canada, including three new venues for our friends in the Maritimes. Also part of the program this spring are Cheap Thrills, The Battery, Odd Thomas and In Fear. All the dates are below.

Odd Thomas - Thursday February 13
Stephen Sommers (The Mummy) adapts Dean Koontz's best-selling book Odd Thomas concerning a clairvoyant short-order cook (Anton Yelchin) who tries to prevent a supernatural catastrophe that he senses is linked to a mysterious loner. Willem Dafoe, Addison Timlin and Patton Oswalt co-star.
 
In Fear - Thursday March 13
Jeremy Lovering's Sundance horror sensation, In Fear is a tense psychological horror about a young couple's fight to make it through the night.  Home invasion but in a car. In real-time. Tom (Iain De Caestecker) and Lucy (Alice Englert) are trapped in a maze of country roads with only their vehicle for protection, terrorized by an unseen tormentor hell-bent on exploiting their worst fears. Driving, lost and tormented in the night, primal fears of the dark and the unknown give way to fear that you have let the evil in, or that it is already there.
Starring Iain De Caestecker (ABC's hit series Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D), Alice Englert (Beautiful Creatures) and Allen Leech (Downton Abbey).
 
Cheap Thrills - Thursday March 27
E.L. Katz's black comedy/thriller, which had its world premiere at South By Southwest, tells the story of Craig (Pat Healy), an auto mechanic who loses his job. He is unable to pay his rent and after seeing the eviction sign, goes to a bar where he meets an old high school friend, Vince (Ethan Embry). A rich couple, Colin and Violet (David Koechner and Sara Paxton), give them money for completing certain tasks. The tasks are simple at first, but later become increasingly violent.

The Battery - Thursday April 17
Jeremy Gardner's elevated genre hit The Battery tells the story of two former baseball players whose personalities clash as they traverse the rural back roads of a post-plague New England teeming with the undead.

Cabin Fever: Patient Zero - Thursday May 29
When a cruise ship in the Caribbean collides with an abandoned research vessel, a deadly virus is unleashed. Passengers must find a way to survive before the flesh eating disease consumes them all.

Directed by Kaare Andrews (Altitude and The ABCs of Death) penned by Jake Wade Wall (The Hitcher), the film
