For Immediate Release:
TORONTO (December 3, 2015) - 5'7 FILMS and Breakthrough Entertainment have completed production on THE HAUNTED HOUSE ON KIRBY ROAD, a teen horror feature film written by Adam Rodness & Stu Stone.
THE HAUNTED HOUSE ON KIRBY ROAD is the story of 6 teens who attempt to debunk an urban legend of a local haunted house. The film stars some very exciting fresh faces plucked right out of the Toronto talent pool, who broke expectations everyday on set.
Stone is well known for his time in front of the camera in roles like the cult classic, Donnie Darko and The Boys Club. He will also appear in the upcoming John Travolta film Life on The Line. He also served as co-creator and executive producer of MTV's Jamie Kennedy's Blowin Up, and Kickn' It Old Skool along with producing Spike TV's Criss Angel: Believe.
Adam Rodness also has on-camera credits with series including Rookie Blue and the hit Netflix supernatural series Hemlock Grove which premiered its third and final season this fall. Behind the camera, Rodness serves as the co-producer on the upcoming thriller Unearthing. He also produced 20 Moves, a feature documentary on the untold story of the Rubik's Cube which will be released worldwide.
THE HAUNTED HOUSE ON KIRBY ROAD is directed by Stu Stone and produced by Rodness.
Rodness and Stone have been working alongside Breakthrough developing TV series, and feature films for 3 years.
We are thrilled to have the opportunity to work with such a recognized company as Breakthrough Entertainment. We look forward to a productive partnership with Breakthrough for many years to come, says Rodness & Stone.
Both Stu Stone and Adam Rodness possess tremendous creativity and drive, which is reflected in their extensive track record in film and television. We are excited about bringing THE HAUNTED HOUSE ON KIRBY ROAD into the global marketplace and continuing to develop and produce alongside this dynamic duo, said Nat Abraham, Partner & President, Distribution for Breakthrough Entertainment.
