2012 Sundance Predictions: J.T. Petty’s Hellbenders

Date:

#29. Hellbenders – J.T Petty

This one might be a little of a stretch, but perhaps a decade since J.T. Petty blasted on the scene with Soft for Digging a
$6000 feature that was selected for the 2001 Sundance Film Festival. Up the budget a little more, insert 3D technology and add thesps Clancy Brown, Dan Fogler and Clifton Collins Jr. to a genre-twisting nouveau horror film and Hellbenders might be the hot pick-up title in the Park City at Midnight section.

Gist: The movie is about a secret group of elite demonologists in a Brooklyn diocese who battle a terrifying supernatural force that threatens their lives and faith.

Producers: Jon S. Denny, Lawrence Mattis, David Moscow, Mark L. Pederson, Aldey Sanchez (Salvage)
