Horror and science-fiction The Ghost Lights (2022) is a spine-chilling new science-fiction thriller about a woman on the search for the truth about extra-terrestrial life. Because, as the headline of the movie reads, “bad things happen to those who chase lights”.
The movie centers on a journalist who returns home after the death of her father and discovers a mysterious cassette tape describing strange disappearances and mysterious lights appearing in the skies of West Texas. In an effort to connect with the memory of her late father, she sets out on a cross-state road trip to discover the truth.
This is the debut feature film of writer, producer, and director Timothy Stevens after some documentaries, TV movies, and short films including the wards-winner fantasy short The Resurrectionist (2016). In The Ghost Lights (2022) he also reserved for himself a small role called Man in Black.
The main cast is formed of Katreeva Phillips, Madison Calhoun, Ryan Bijan, Billy Blair, and John Francis McCullagh.
In the words of the director Timothy Stevens, “if I were to choose a theme for 2020, it would be ‘loss’. And we did lose so much- jobs, our ways of life, and in some tragic cases our friends and loved ones. This film too is about loss and the inevitable regret that follows. We wish we could go back, say something we always meant to say but never made the time, pay attention when we were too self-obsessed to notice or make a different decision before it was too late. The Ghost Lights (2022) seeks to explore the darkness of this guilt and possibilities of reconciliation, even across time itself”.
The Ghost Lights (2022) is coming out on digital on August 26, 2022, followed by the Terror Films Channel on September 2 and Kings of Horror on September 9.
