The teaser for Dead Eyes, which was captured using a custom head-mounted Sony VENICE Rialto system, is here.

Film Synopsis:

Sean and his fiancée, Grace, enter a remote forest to search for Sean’s missing father, Paul, who vanished following the tragic death of his youngest daughter, Lilly. Returning to the site of Lilly’s death forces Sean to confront his inner demons — which soon begin to manifest in terrifying physical ways. Their search takes a horrifying turn when they uncover Paul’s dark secret: cloning experiments designed to resurrect Lilly.

The forest is now inhabited by cannibalistic mutant girls, each a clone of Lilly, violently battling to prove she is the “real” one. As Sean and Grace uncover the grim truth, they must survive grotesque creatures while grappling with disturbing questions about identity, loss, and the boundaries between life and death. 

The film stars Mischa Heywood, Ana Thu Nguyen (starring in the upcoming Mortal Kombat II), Stephen Phillips, Charles Cottier (The Demon Disorder), and Alea O’Shea, with additional performances by Rijen Laine (In Our Blood, Tidelands).

The film marks the latest feature from writer-director Richard E. Williams, an Australian filmmaker. Williams is known for his work on the feature White Blood and has produced numerous television commercials for Australian broadcast. A recognized screenwriter, he has been a finalist at the Slamdance Film Festival and QLD Screenwriting Awards.

Dead Eyes will have its World Premiere as part of the Visions section on March 12th at the SXSW Film Festival in Austin, Texas.
