08/24/2024 - With its limited theatrical run at an end, the self-aware horror-comedy, DARKNESS HUNTING (2024) is Now Available for rent or purchase on PRIME VIDEO!
Richard Propes of The Independent Critic said, "Writer/director Adam B. Sergent has crafted a solid entry into the ghosthunting sub-genre by infusing his storytelling with a unique vibe and characters who are fun to watch," while Jolly Moel of Screen Critix said, "It's reminiscent of 90's pop culture staples including the self-aware ironic horror films like Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer, smug children's sitcoms like Saved By The Bell, and the teen angst dramedies like My So Called Life and Dawson's Creek."
Writer, Director, and Producer, Adam Sergent, and Award-Winning Independent Production Company, Bad Image Productions, Inc. are proud to present, DARKNESS HUNTING (2024)!
In search of monumental fame, a small group of would-be ghost-hunters investigate a notoriously haunted location, only to unleash a terrifying darkness. To make matters worse, not everyone in the group is who they appear to be, and they just might require the assistance of a world-renowned medium if they wish to make it out alive.
The film stars David Rice, Damita "Star" Harris, Jordan Bryant, Madison Deatherage, Wheeler Green, Chris Olds, Cheryl Sergent, Linda Underwood Rice Hawkins, and Adam Sergent, with music from Will and Stacy Lawton.
If you love Ouija boards, Tarot Cards, EMF meters, and capturing EVP's, then DARKNESS HUNTING might just be for you - own your copy today on PRIME VIDEO!
