FINAL DESTINATION creator Jeffrey Reddick is among the producers of the forthcoming family frightener.

Quiver Distribution releases THE OTHER (no relation to the 1972 classic of the same title) on VOD and digital platforms June 13. Written and directed by Paul Etheredge (HELLBENT), it stars Olivia Macklin, Dylan McTee, Avangeline Friedlander, Lily D. Moore, and the SAW series’ Shawnee Smith. The synopsis: “After years of infertility, Robin [Macklin] and Daniel [McTee] adopt Kathelia [Friedlander], a mute orphan with a dark past. But their dream turns to horror as eerie events unfold and Kathelia’s behavior grows unsettling. As an evil force takes hold, they must fight for their family—and their survival.”
