CYCLE OF FEAR


Visit www.cycleoffear.net

IndieCan Music is proud to announce its collaborative partnership with Digital Silver Productions in its independent horror film "Cycle of Fear" produced and directed by Manuel H. Da Silva. "Cycle of Fear" will premiere at the Bloor Cinema in Toronto on May 31, 2008.

One year ago, fourteen teenagers went missing. Tabetha (Valerie Morrissey) is the only known surivior from the massacre on October 31, 2007. Found by the side of the road with no memory of who she is and the secret she holds, Tabetha must find out what’s in store for her through clues in her own sketches. The secret will lead her to the codex, a book about witchcraft, demonic possession and a hidden portal to the infamous ’Seven Gates of Hell’.
Now, Samantha (Rachael Ancheril) presumed dead from last year’s massacre, finds her friend Tabetha to help her unlock the mystery to the whereabouts of the book. With evil entities watching their every move, Tabetha and Samantha must move fast. Two ancient enemies from beyond the natural world race each other to find Tabetha and ultimately the book. The race begins now with a legendary Witch, Selena Sutton and an evil demon, Azeziel. Tabetha must follow her own clues to find the codex to protect the world as we know it before Selena or Azeziel do.
