Press Release: Executive producer and CEO of Dragonfly Films, Todd Myers, along with producer Elaine Marie Gibson, has released the first teaser trailer for the horror-thriller film LASSO, starring Sean Patrick Flanery (The Boondock Saints), Lindsey Morgan (“The 100”), Karen Grassle (“Little House on the Prairie”), and Andrew Jacobs (Paranormal Activity: The Marked Ones).
Directed by Evan Cecil and shot on the new Panasonic VariCam 35, LASSO is the story of Simon (Jacobs) and Kit (Morgan), two young leaders of an Active Senior Tour group, out on an adventure to a small-town rodeo festival located deep in the woods. It’s a great experience for the group … until they try to leave. Simon and Kit must save themselves, and whatever seniors they can, from becoming victims of a deadly Rodeo Ritual. Along the way they join up with another unexpected group of victims, including a one-armed cowboy, Ennis (Flanery); Rosheen, the rodeo queen; and Trish, a powerhouse female bull rider. Together the group must fight to survive the night from relentless bloodthirsty cowboys on the hunt for human livestock.
“We wanted to create a unique and exciting cinematic throwback to classic horror films, with brand new entertaining thrills, spills, and kills to keep the audience screaming and cheering for more,” said Cecil.
“From the get-go LASSO takes the viewer on an emotional and thrilling ride. We are excited to screen the final movie, a Texas Chain Saw Massacre meets Cocoon style horror movie with an exceptional eclectic ensemble cast, later this year,” added Myers.
