World Premiere
Thia Schuessler and Rex New wrote and directed the short film HOUSESITTER, which played at the Indianapolis and Atlanta Film Festivals, amongst others. Schuessler & New were nominated for the Atlanta Film Festival's "Filmmaker to Watch" award. The film was also selected for the Film Festival Collective by Xfinity On Demand. Most recently, New and Schuessler produced the second season of LES CARDINAUX, a French short film anthology.
With writing partner Nick Turner, New also co-wrote the film DANCE CAMP, produced by Jon M. Chu, YouTube's first original film. Most recently, the two adapted the novel THE SECRET WISDOM OF THE EARTH, produced by Alicia Van Couvering and Amy Stein.
For our first foray into the horror genre, Rex and I wanted to experiment with the screen recording medium. I had recently gone through the unique trauma of being threatened (online) by a stalker. This is in no way a dramatization of what happened to me, but I certainly used it as inspiration while writing this.
When it premiered at the Buried Alive Horror Film Festival in Atlanta, it was called the film that "sneaks up on you." Muahahaa
