New Year’s Eve sometimes yields worse things than introspective melancholia, hangovers and/or regretful one-night stands, as is the case in Ritchie Filippi’s upcoming horror feature The Eve. Read on for the one-sheet debut and several stills.
Written by producer and The Eve star Evan Bass and additionally produced by Angel L. Acevedo and David M. Rheingold, The Eve features cinematography by Brian C. Harnick and editing by Jess King with a score by Kenneth Hampton. The story revolves around a group of friends who, while celebrating New Year’s Eve on a remote island off of Martha’s Vineyard, find themselves marauded by an unforeseen presence which halts their celebration and turns their holiday into a fight to live through to the new year.
Al Thompson, Maria Didomenico, Miranda Noelle Wilson, Rick Estabrook, Margaux Kelley, and Jody Mullins round out the cast.

The film stars Julie Lisandro (Cheerleader Massacre), Glen Jensen (Fingerprints, Soul's Midnight), Ben Bayless and Jody Mullins in this latest horror-action shocker. AnythingHorror.com, said of the film: "But once in a while we get a really ambitious indie project like Denizen, which is written, directed, produced, and edited by J.A. Steel (she also did the fight choreography, the stunts, and was the underwater camera operator). Denizen shakes off the slasher plot-line in favor of the “creature feature” story and has a cast of 39 actors.

"And where are all the gods? Where's the streetwise Hercules to fight the rising odds?" Bonnie Tyler's song from "Footloose" has been echoing through my head lately. And the Original theme from the real "Battlestar Galactica." Everything is a remake anymore. It makes me sick to my stomach. So, when I don't like something. I change it. Bring the characters, bring the heroes back. I worked for Sho Kosugi and the one thing I knew - he really was that good. Will my arrogance be my downfall? Perhaps. Only time will tell...but to change it you have to believe you are capable of even doing it in the first place.
My third feature film, "Denizen" is nearing completion. I've screened the rough cut for a few of my friends. I've gotten the complaints it's too gritty - too much action and not enough sex. That everyone wants "more...
