Actors Jeffrey Pierce (The Nine), Jesse Plemons (Friday Night Lights), Stephen Martines (No Man’s Land: Reeker II), Rachel Miner (Tooth and Nail, Californication) and Mircea Monroe (The Black Waters of Echoes Pond) will star in this tale of four criminals stranded in a snow-covered fort with three deadly sirens.

Family Man: Directed by Ronny Yu and is written by Dan Knauf. This thriller focuses on a likeable family man (Colin Ferguson, Eureka) who switches bodies with a serial killer (Clifton Collins Jr., Star Trek) after a near-death experience.

When a veterinarian (Wendell Pierce, Stay Alive) gets bitten by a large, strange animal brought into his clinic, he begins to see the world and his stale life differently.
