Women-driven shocker “GET MY GUN” sees release next month; full details

Following its festival tour, the independent psychothriller GET MY GUN is set to play theaters across the country in September. Read on for the info.

Written and directed by Brian Darwas and produced by Jennifer Carchietta, GET MY GUN is in the tradition of such female-centric favorites as MS. 45 and INSIDE. Kate Hoffman, Christy Casey, Rosanne Rubino, William Jousset and Jacqueline Guillen star; the synopsis: “Cleaning hotel rooms is how Amanda [Hoffman] makes ends meet, but one day, she enters the wrong room. Brutally attacked, Amanda is left emotionally shattered and pregnant. Looking to forge ahead, the resilient young woman has to tap into her basest survival instincts when a relentless stalker makes his or her intentions known.”
