IN OUR SIGHTS: WOLF MOTHER

WHAT IS IT? Written and directed by Erik Peter Carlson (Transatlantic Coffee, The Toy Soldiers), genre cross-over Wolf Mother stars Najarra Townsend (Contracted), New York stage actor, Kevin Pinassi, and star of David Lynch’s Twin Peaks revival, Tom Sizemore (Heat, Saving Private Ryan). You remember him, right? In an attempt to rectify their criminal past, a once successful Hollywood starlet, turned prostitute, and a petty, misogynistic thief, set out together to solve a high profile child abduction case in San Francisco.

WHY? Judging from the trailer, it's a gritty, blood-soaked affair with decent production values to boot. Writer and director, Erik Peter Carlson, is embracing the new distribution strategy for his film. “We’re completely changing the way indie films are distributed. This a huge leap not just for us, but for all indie films that follow. Gone are the days of handing your film over and losing all control. We’re going right to the fans,” says Carlson.

WHEN? Wolf Mother will launch on JoBlo’s Movie Network YouTube Channel – in over 25 countries, prior to its theatrical and digital release in early 2017.
