Producer, Robert Weinbach is excited to announce that genre fan favorite, Danielle Harris just won the “Best Actress Award” for his recently completed psychological horror, SHIVER at the Burbank International Film Festival.
Directed by multi award winner, Julian Richards ("Darklands", "The Last Horror Movie"), SHIVER has also been selected for a UK Premiere at the prestigious 2012 RAINDANCE INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL where it will screen on October 3, 2012 at the Apollo Theatre.
In its write-up about SHIVER, RAINDANCE states that: “The tension and gore factor are ramped up from the word go. The murders are brutal, relentless and unflinching. Rood, the killer is as clever and complex as Hannibal Lector and as unstoppable as Michael Myers. His seemingly normal façade, and his warped attempts at engaging Wendy in conversation are chilling, reminding us that such people can and do live among us. The reveal of his terrible depravity is an ingenious and truly macabre masterpiece of theatrical grand guignol.”
Weinbach, a two time film fest screenplay award winner, adapted SHIVER from the acclaimed “edge of your seat” novel by Brian Harper.
