Check out the Poster and Trailer for ‘YOU ARE NOT ALONE’

No, it is not a film about that Michael Jackson song. You Are Not Alone is an independent film that was started on Kickstarter back in May of this year. Shot during the month of July with the 4th being the backdrop to a psycho serial killer on the loose. Even better, the film is shot in a POV perspective. It sounds ambitious but now that we got a look at the film via the trailer, color me interested. After watching the Kickstarter pitch video, the director, Derek Mungor, seems like a guy that loves genre cinema and is trying to do something different than the norm. Check out the trailer and poster below.

Synopsis

“Natalie is a college graduate visiting her hometown over the 4th of July. The night she arrives, she is stalked by a sociopathic killer.” ‘YOU ARE NOT ALONE’ is a motion picture with two very different stories. At the forefront, this picture is about a college graduate, Natalie, reconnecting with friends and family as she visits her hometown over the Fourth of July. Over the first half of the film, She floats through the proceedings of the July 4th celebration her town is known for. The town is inundated with news about a dangerous sociopath who is in the midst of a spree killing and reportedly within the area. The second half of the picture is what happens when Natalie crosses paths with said killer.

‘YOU ARE NOT ALONE’ is a project that was developed by Dan Abbate, Chris O’Brien, Jonald Reyes, and Derek Mungor. This motion picture is unique in both its subject matter and its approach. Originally conceived as a project that would utilize the first-person perspective or point-of-view, You Are Not Alone sets out to tell a suspense/horror story in a new and interesting way. At it’s core, it is very much a story about family and returning to the place you grew up to find that it’s not so much that the places have changed, but you have. With this very character-focused introduction and familiar setting, in a way, it is bucking the conventions of many horror films.
