Sound From the Deep
Sound From the Deep is a voyage to the unknown, inspired by the stories of H. P. Lovecraft. A research group searches for oil in the Arctic Ocean, but they find much much more at the bottom of the deep, dark ocean. Could it be the remnants of a long-forgotten city?
AM1200
Cocky investment analyst Sam Larson has a lot on his mind. After a financial scam goes horribly wrong, he hits the road in a desperate bid to outrun his guilt. A fragment of a radio broadcast, that may or may not be a distress call, lures him to an isolated transmitting station and into a terrifying mystery of murder, madness and the insatiable hunger of a power beyond his comprehension.
AM1200 is a 40 minute horror thriller written, produced and directed by award-winning DVD producer David Prior (Zodiac, Fight Club, Master & Commander).
Was a World Premiere at the 2008 HPLFF in Portland.
