AREA 407 features lost footage too real for reality and too disturbing for fiction. The film opens with two teenagers flying from New York to Los Angeles on New Years Eve. Their nightmare begins when their plane hits extreme turbulence mid-flight. The relentless weather attack causes panic and terror amongst the passengers until the plane ultimately crashes in a remote government-testing area. The handful of survivors from the crash, bloody and disoriented, are then insistently pursued in the darkness by unknown predators that, unbeknownst to them, are part of the government’s top-secret Mesa Experiment.
Jonathan Sehring, President of Sundance Selects/IFC Films, commented: “AREA 407 is a rollercoaster ride of thrills that we think is the perfect IFC Midnight film. Dale Fabrigar and Everette Wallin have a lot of fun with genre conventions and deliver a film that is both a lot of fun and also quite scary. We look forward to working with them on this film.”
Noted Fabrigar and Wallin: “Both of us were really excited about bringing something new to the found footage arena. Airplanes and monsters were just the beginning of the story for us, so to have IFC come in and be a part of it only makes the journey all the more worth while.”
