After directing SESSION 9 and THE MACHINIST, Brad Anderson has been keeping busy in TV, helming episodes of MASTERS OF HORROR, FEAR ITSELF, FRINGE and TREME. His TRANSSIBERRIAN went under the radar, but Anderson’s latest film, VANISHING ON 7TH STREET, sounds like it could be an intimate and very dark spin on the postapocalyptic picture. Check out these photos from the film as well as the plot synopsis.
This rat is of a known origin—Kenta Fukasaku. The BATTLE ROYALE 2 director’s new film is about a rat-masked killer who goes on a nighttime rampage against a group of students. This second trailer introduces the potential victims, but beware, it’s rather revealing.

Dark Castle’s THE FACTORY is another cop-pursuing-a-serial-killer film from actor-turned-director Morgan O’Neill. The movie—which stars 1408’s John Cusack and DEXTER’s Jennifer Carpenter—is set up to be released by Warner Bros, but was pulled from its original January 2011 release date.
