Arclight Films at the 2007 Tribeca Film Festival
Arclight Films is proud to announce that UNEARTHED and DESCENT will screen at Tribeca this year.

Arclight Films is pleased to announce that our following titles have been selected for the 2007 Tribeca Film Festival: UNEARTHED, starring beauties Beau Garrett - who was recently cast in the upcoming Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer - and Emmanuelle Vaugier as a Sheriff of a small New Mexican town who unearths an ancient evil while investigating a sinister road crash; and DESCENT, starring Rosario Dawson in a tale of innocence shattered, dreams destroyed and vengeance fulfilled. Descent begins with an idealistic vision of college sweethearts and wild house parties, but quickly falls apart. A rape sends Maya into a spiral of drugs, rage and despair-until she is reunited with her attacker and offered a chance to settle the score...

Jonathan Deckter will be in attendance from Apr 27 - May 3 and would love to meet with you, so if you would like to schedule a meeting to discuss any of our titles, please contact him at jonathan@arclightfilms.com.

Over a thousand years ago, the Anasazi culture thrived in the American Southwest, and then inexplicably disappeared without a trace, leaving behind one of archaeology's greatest mysteries. It is commonly believed the Anasazi died out due to drought, but Unearthed proposes an alternative scenario when a scientist obsessed with the lost culture makes a sinister discovery in the New Mexico desert-and realizes that their disappearance may have been at the hands of an extraterrestrial man-eater.

Uncovering an ancient subterranean lair, he unleashes a hideous creature that is highly intelligent, agile and has a taste for human flesh. One by one, townspeople are bloodily picked off while a band of hapless travelers are left stranded and waiting to die. Their only hope is Annie (Emmanuelle Vaugier), a quick-thinking sheriff who's haunted by a dark past and determined to shake her reputation as the town drunk.

Employing a saturated look, Unearthed uses the dryness and isolation of the desert at its most raw to create an extreme contrast to the supernatural invasion by a killer monster. With fast-paced action and gory, violent kill scenes, director Matthew Leutwyler skillfully heightens the suspense and mystery right up to the thrilling climax.

Director: Matthew Leutwyler

Cast: Emmanuelle Vaugier, Luke Goss, Beau Garrett, Charlie Murphy, M.C. Gainey, Russell Means

A tale of innocence shattered, dreams destroyed and vengeance fulfilled, Descent begins with an idealistic vision of college sweethearts and wild house parties, but quickly falls apart when a rape sends a co-ed into a spiral of drugs, rage and despair.

Maya (Rosario Dawson) is a promising student, identified by her professor as top of her class. When she meets Jared (Chad Faust) at a party, she's disgusted by the frat-boy mentality and the boys hitting on her friend. Maya's quick to mock Jared's pick-up lines and shrugs off his insinuations. But he persists, and she gives him a chance by handing over her phone number. Jared later violently attacks her, both physically and psychologically, shattering her notions of a perfect life and sending her reeling into a state of depression.

Maya soon floats into a circle of promiscuous drug users, abandoning the idealistic life she once sought for a world of hedonism and escape, until one day she finds herself face to face with the boy who stole everything from her. Offered a chance at the last word, Maya's grappling with the fear Jared instilled in her and her determination to avenge that pain culminates in a decision that will change them both forever.
