We have our first look at the new Lionsgate film ‘Dear David’ starring Augustus Prew, Andrea Bang, Rene Escobar Jr., Cameron Nicoll, and Justin Long.
Shortly after comic artist Adam (Augustus Prew) responds to Internet trolls, he begins experiencing sleep paralysis — while an empty rocking chair moves in the corner of his apartment. As he chronicles increasingly malevolent occurrences in a series of tweets, Adam begins to believe he is being haunted by the ghost of a dead child named David. Encouraged by his boss to continue the “Dear David” thread, Adam starts to lose his grip on what is online…and what is real. Based on the viral Twitter thread by BuzzFeed comic artist Adam Ellis.
Synopsis
The new film is directed by John McPhail and written by Mike Van Waes. It will be in select theaters, digital, and on demand October 13th 2023.
