It is not often we see a film in the genre reveal such depth and complexity. We are honored and excited to present this very special film.”
Written and directed by John Rosman, NEW LIFE is a character-driven story that upends traditional horror conventions through its intimate exploration of mortality. The film follows the story of a mysterious woman on the run (Hayley Erin) and the resourceful fixer assigned to bring her in (Sonya Walger). As their two stories inexorably link, the stakes of their pursuit rise to apocalyptic proportions. In NEW LIFE, Rosman has crafted a film that skillfully blurs its genre boundaries.
Director John Rosman shared his thoughts on the acquisition, saying, “From our first conversation, Brainstorm has been exceptionally collaborative and creative. I feel lucky that our project landed a team who believes that the things which make New Life different – are the things that make it special. I couldn’t be more thrilled to partner with Brainstorm to bring New Life to theaters and into people’s homes this spring.”
The film is produced by T. Justin Ross, producer of 2023’s Saturn Award-nominated time-travel thriller APORIA, as well as the independent horror darling THE MORTUARY COLLECTION.
