Synopsis
"Stay in the light."
From director Brad Anderson (SESSION 9, TRANSSIBERIAN, THE
MACHINIST) comes VANISHING ON 7TH STREET, a terrifying, apocalyptic
thriller that taps into one of humankind’s most primal anxieties:
fear of the dark.
When an unexplained blackout plunges the city of Detroit into total
darkness, the next morning as the sun rises, reveals that only a few
people remain - surrounded by heaps of empty clothing, abandoned
cars and lengthening shadows.
A small handful of strangers that have managed to survive the night
(Hayden Christensen, Thandie Newton, John Leguizamo and newcomer
Jacob Latimore) each find their way to a rundown bar, whose
gasoline-powered generator and stockpile of food and drink make it
the last refuge in a deserted city.
With daylight beginning to disappear completely and whispering
shadows surrounding the survivors, they soon discover that the enemy
is the darkness itself, and only the few remaining light sources can
keep them safe. As time begins to run out for them, darkness closes
in and they must face the ultimate terror.
