Although it has only premiered at film festivals until now, The Return has already gained some distinguished awards that bode well for the horror/thriller's reception. Not only did Richard Harmon receive the award for Best Actor at the New York City Horror Film Festival, but the movie itself claimed the title of Best Feature at the H.P. Lovecraft Film Festival.
Leading the cast of the terrifying supernatural ghost story are two stars from the incredibly popular CW series, The 100. In addition to Richard Harmon, his The 100 co-star Sara Thompson also features in the new horror movie.
BJ Verot is credited for directing the film, which also stars Echo Andersson, Marina Stephenson Kerr, Zoe Fish, Erik Athavale, and Gwendolyn Collins. The poster below gives a tease at one of the monsters in the film with a clever tagline, "Childhood Horrors Can Kill."
