More Lovecraftian weirdness is on its way next month.
Breaking Glass Pictures releases UNSPEAKABLE: BEYOND THE WALL OF SLEEP, written and directed by Chad Ferrin, on VOD March 4. The film, which we first told you about here, combines a sequel to Ferrin’s debut movie UNSPEAKABLE and an adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft’s story “Beyond the Wall of Sleep.” It stars Edward Furlong, Susan Priver, Robert Miano, Ginger Lynn Allen, Bai Ling, Steve Railsback, Elina Madison, Jennifer Drake, Cyril O’Reilly, Corey Love, Suzanne Sumner Ferry, Silvia Spross, Jerry Irons, Brandon Kirk, Elli Rahn, Timothy Muskatell, Lew Temple, Roger Garcia, Jeffrey Decker, Peter Mendoza, Craig Ng, Robert Rhine, Jon Budinoff and Kurt Bonzell, with makeup effects by Joe Castro.
The synopsis: “Renowned oneirologist Ambrose London [Furlong] is requested to Arkham Asylum by newly appointed Dr. Barnard [Priver] to study the strange case of James Fhelleps [Miano]. He’s a patient seemingly inhabited by the personality of Joe Slater, a denizen of the Catskill Mountains region–a primitive colonial peasant of barbaric degeneracy, who had mysteriously vanished 122 years ago. Ambrose and Barnard’s investigation takes an unexpected turn when Fhelleps/Slater is attached to London’s ‘Dream Machine,’ which releases an alien life form bent on world annihilation.”
