AMP will debut Invader in November at the upcoming American Film Market.
“We are very excited to be partnering with Mike and the team to bring Invader to AFM,” said Anthony Buckner, AMP’s Head of Sales, Acquisitions, and Distribution. “This is a home invasion tale with a festive twist, and a film we feel will resonate strongly with international buyers in Los Angeles as we head towards the holiday season!”
Caron added: “Invader is a holiday pressure cooker of fear, family, and revenge – every frame builds toward the moment when you realize that no one is safe, resulting in a movie that will terrify and entertain audiences worldwide.”
