The film is directed by Yam Laranas (The Road) and stars Adam Brody and Amanda Crew. The movie revolves around an all-American couple whose dream of starting a family is shattered after they move into the “perfect” New England neighborhood, where they descend into the depths of terror as they struggle to survive a genuine threat from a dark presence that appears to want to end their very lives. Donald Martin (Milton’s Secret) wrote the screenplay and Rob Heydon (Ecstasy) is producing the project. No word yet on a release date for The Wanting.
