Bethany Joy Lenz (“One Tree Hill”) stars in the thriller SO COLD THE RIVER, available in theaters March 25 and on digital and on-demand March 29 from Saban Films.
A chilling, suspenseful adaptation of The New York Times bestseller, SO COLD THE RIVER by Michael Koryta.
Acclaimed documentary filmmaker Erica Shaw (Bethany Joy Lenz) is hired by Alyssa Bradford-Cohen (Alysia Reiner) to profile her dying father-in-law, the enigmatic millionaire Campbell Bradford. Erica is presented with a substantial sum of money and a relic, an antique bottle filled with water from a local spring, one of the few clues connecting Bradford to the town he once dominated. While researching Bradford as a guest of a massive, opulent resort with a dark past, Erica meets unofficial town historian Anne McKinney (Tony Award-winner Deanna Dunagan), fanatical intern Kellyn (Katie Sarife), and hotel maintenance worker Josiah (Andrew J. West), a descendant of Bradford’s who reveals the familial curse of mysterious deaths and suicides. Seemingly possessed by the relic, Erica begins drinking from the antique bottle, experiencing terrifying visions and, ultimately, unleashing unspeakable evil. Can Erica make her way through the darkness or is Campbell’s evil undercurrent too strong?
