I’m really shocked that it took this long for the film to be picked up. While the movie was shot on a microbudget with no stars, I believe it is filled with franchise and viral marketing possibilities (it is the first part of a planned trilogy, seriously…). I still think they need to change the horrible title. I’m very happy to see the film end up at Searchlight, as it is a good fit for the company. I’m very interested to see how they promote the film, or if they’re planning to cross promote Voice with Earth.

Official Plot Synopsis:
Peter and Lorna, a young Silver Lake couple, delve into the underworld of a cult that meets in the San Fernando valley. At the center of the group is an enigmatic young woman named Maggie who never leaves her basement chamber. The members follow Maggie blindly—growing her food, obsessively sanitizing the house, giving her their own blood for transfusions. But why? We follow Peter and Lorna as they smuggle hidden cameras into Maggie’s basement bent on exposing her as a charlatan and freeing the members from her spell.
