Well Go USA has acquired the domestic rights to the creature feature The Yeti.
The film just received an R rating from the MPA for “bloody violent content and some gore,” signalling that a release is imminent.
Set in the remote wilds of northern Alaska, a famed adventurer and an oil tycoon vanish without a trace. Their children set out on a desperate rescue mission only to discover that something far older and more dangerous than the Arctic itself has awakened.
A prehistoric predator is stalking them. The legend is real. The hunter is The Yeti.
Brittany Allen (“Dexter: Original Sin”), Eric Nelsen (A Walk Among the Tombstones), Corbin Bernsen (“Psych”), Jim Cummings (Halloween Kills), Christina Bennett Lind (“House of Cards”), and William Sadler (The Shawshank Redemption) lead the ensemble.
From Hardscrabble Film Company, Torfoot Entertainment Group and Radiant Films, the film is written and directed by William Pisciotta and Gene Gallerano.
“We created The Yeti as an elevated creature feature, harkening back to the golden age of monster movies when horror relied on practical effects, suspense, and well-rounded characters,” said Pisciotta and Gallerano. “We love that 1950s Cinemascope sentiment combined with our backyard JJ Abrams-style filmmaking and aesthetic.”
