At least, we gotta admit the filmmakers have been as transparent as possible in choosing the title of the movie A Town Full of Ghosts (2022). In it, we follow a couple who moves into a forgotten ghost town with big plans to restore it but soon discovers the town has an evil secret.
Mark and his wife Jenna sell everything they have to purchase a western ghost town called Blackwood Falls in the middle of nowhere. They plan to turn the ghost town into a tourist attraction with hotels, restaurants, and attractions. They hire a small film crew to document their journey and upload the videos to their video channel. When funding falls through, they find themselves stuck in the middle of nowhere. Things take a twist when Mark discovers the town has a horrible history of death. He secretly digs deeper into the past and stumbles upon something evil. Tensions start to rise when one of the film crew goes missing, and everyone finds themselves trapped in the town. Jenna comes up with a plan to escape, but Mark begins to lose his mind and takes matters into his own hands. Jenna makes one last attempt to escape the town. She gets lost in the wooden maze while something evil goes after her. She must escape or become an eternal resident in Blackwood Falls.
This is the new movie from writer and director Isaac Rodriguez, a horror filmmaker who has been behind a long list of short films and features including The Stream (2017), Unknown Visitor (2019), Deadware (2021), and Last Radio Call (2022).
The main cast for A Town Full of Ghosts (2022) movie is formed by Andrew C. Fisher, Mandy Lee Rubio, Sarah Froelich, Keekee Suki, Ali Alkhafaji, Lauren Lox, and Mike Dell.
About the inspiration for the film, the director Isaac Rodriguez stated “After visiting the J. Lorraine, TX, ghost Town in Austin, TX, I was immediately inspired to make my next film there. The town was actually all built by the current owner. Some of the buildings were very small and looked fake, but I knew I could incorporate that into the story. A few months back, I saw a YouTuber who sold everything and moved into a real ghost town in California. I wanted to use that basic idea with a married couple and add a The Shining (1980) vibe to it”.
The movie is out on digital on June 17, 2022.
