The feature debut of director Barnaby Clay, Magnet Releasing’s The Seeding centers on a hiker who gets lost in the desert and seeks refuge with a woman who is living alone.
He soon discovers that she might not be there willingly…
Ahead of the film’s release in theaters and on PVOD January 26, 2024, Magnet has exclusively provided Bloody Disgusting with the trailer and poster for Clay’s The Seeding.
The filmmaker tells us, “The film has been gestating for a long time, so it’s thrilling for people to finally get to experience it. I say ‘experience’ because I set out to make The Seeding as immersive as possible. It’s not a film to feel removed from, it’s an experience that drags you though the sand, the heat, the decay, and also natural beauty of the world it takes place in.
“I had a similar feeling watching certain films from the ’70s, mostly from Australia; Walkabout, Picnic At Hanging Rock, Wake in Fright – I left these movies sunburnt and destroyed.”
“I was also struck by films from the same period such as Deliverance, that expose the male psyche in its most primal reactive form,” Clay continues. “Who knows how you’d react under a similar set of circumstances, I probably wouldn’t fare too well.”
Scott Haze (Venom) and Kate Lyn Sheil (V/H/S) star in The Seeding.
