Step into Conflict's Wake

Wake had its premiere at the SXSW on March 12th and now the first trailer is available. In the trailer a mysterious African-American man creates some conflict in an isolated desert. The setting is the Mojave Desert and help is not just a phone call away. The tension mounts and a couple travelling the nearby highway get involved in a "horrifying secret" (Trailer). That secret is not revealed in the trailer, but fans of thrillers need to take a look at this clip inside. Additional showings of Wake continue at SXSW until March 20th.

The synopsis for Wake here:

"Driving to a wedding in Los Angeles through the Mojave Desert, Paul and Adrienne seem destined for a life of genuine love and happiness. Road-weary, they decide to stop for the night at lonely Roy's Motel and Cafe. This roadside artifact proves to be a strange and surreal place with an unsettling mix of travelers, including front-desk manager Frank and his promiscuous wife Sandy. Ultimately, these ill-fated lovers lead Paul and Adrienne down a path of tense and emotionally charged experiences. In the end, a horrifying secret from Paul's past is revealed with grave consequences for all parties involved" (Trailer).

Release Date: March 12th, 2010 (Limited Release).

Director/writer: Chad Feehan.

Cast: Josh Stewart, Jamie-Lynn Sigler, and Chris Browning.
