Way back in April, we heard that RLJE Films and the Shudder streaming service had landed the North American distribution rights to director Mickey Keating’s horror film Offseason, starring genre regular Jocelin Donahue (Doctor Sleep, The House of the Devil, Insidious: Chapter 2, etc.) Now a release date has finally been announced! Offseason will be receiving a theatrical, digital, and On Demand release on March 11, 2022. According to the press release, “marketing materials are forthcoming”.
The film will be reaching Shudder sometime later in the year.
Described as “an American Gothic horror”, Offseason follows
a woman who travels to a desolate island town after receiving a mysterious letter and soon becomes trapped in a nightmare.
Donahue is joined in the cast by Joe Swanberg (You’re Next, V/H/S), Richard Brake (31, 3 from Hell), and Melora Walters (Boogie Nights, Magnolia). The film was produced by Maurice Fadida and Eric B. Fleischman, through their label Defiant Studios. Kodiak Pictures handled the financing. The international rights are in the hands of WTFFilms.
Shudder’s Craig Engler said,
With Offseason, Keating has crafted an eerie, chilling nightmare that will haunt viewers with its uncanny terror and bone-deep sense of dread, anchored by a mesmerizing lead performance from Donahue.”
Keating previously directed Ritual, Pod, Darling, Carnage Park, and Psychopaths. He also hosted the Shudder talk show The Core. I have watched everything he has made up to this point, and Offseason isn’t going to be an exception. I will definitely be watching this one in March. I’m not always a big fan of his movies, but I am always interested in seeing what he’s going to do next. My interest in Offseason is boosted further by the fact that I’ve been a fan of Jocelin Donahue since The House of the Devil was first released.
