Exclusive clip: Armed against darkness in “LORE”

Making its West Coast premiere this week, Folklore Films’ LORE follows three characters into a forest where danger dwells—but they don’t go unprepared. Check out an exclusive excerpt after the jump.

Screening this Thursday, November 9 at the Red Nation Film Festival in the Laemmle Monica Film Center at 6 p.m. PST (purchase tickets here), LORE was written and directed by Christian Larsen and Brock Manwill, and stars Lyndsey Lantz, Max Lesser, Sean Wei Mah, Victor Gage, Derek Grange and Eric Roberts. The synopsis: “Driven by unshakable conviction that he is still alive, a woman searches for her missing son in a remote wilderness with the help of her estranged husband and a Native American friend familiar with the area. They soon find reason to believe that their son is close, but strange occurrences become increasingly menacing, turning their journey into a fight for survival, both spiritual and physical.”
