Watch through the eyes of the obsessive antagonist in the movie releasing next month.
Dark Sky Films will bring WHO’S WATCHING to select theaters across the U.S. (including New York City’s Roxy Cinema and Los Angeles’ Laemmle’s Glendale) September 18. Written and directed by Tim Kasher, the frontman of influential indie rock bands Cursive and The Good Life, it stars Zachary Ray Sherman (who won the Best Actor Award at the Brooklyn Horror Film Festival for this role), Gracie Gillam, Olivia Luccardi and Steve Berg. The synopsis: “Eccentric musician and aspiring filmmaker Caleb [Sherman] becomes obsessed with his new coworker, Krista [Gillam], secretly documenting every aspect of her life in an effort to make her the subject of his latest film. As Caleb’s fixation intensifies, the lines between observer and participant begin to blur, pulling him deeper into a dangerous spiral of surveillance, manipulation and obsession. As the cameras keep rolling, the question becomes increasingly unsettling: who is really watching who?”
“This film has been over a decade in the making,” Kasher says, “evolving through countless drafts before becoming the story it is today. I’m incredibly proud of what we created, and the performances from Zachary Ray Sherman, Gracie Gillam and Olivia Luccardi brought it to life in ways I could never have imagined. I’m thrilled to finally share this creepy story with audiences.”
Says Dark Sky’s Greg Newman, “Tim Kasher has spent his career exploring relationships and the darker corners of human behavior through his music, and WHO’S WATCHING brings those same themes to the screen in a deeply unsettling way. Anchored by Zachary Ray Sherman’s extraordinary performance, it’s a smart, provocative thriller that lingers long after it ends.”
