A trailer has gone online for the creature-feature Dark Was the Night, starring Kevin Durand (“The Strain”), Lukas Haas (Transcendence), and model-turned-actress and former “World Poker Tour” hostess Sabina Gadecki (pictured). Jack Heller (Enter Nowhere) directs from a 2009 Black List script by Tyler Hisel.

Dark Was the Night follows a group of desperate townsfolk as they attempt to survive an evil beast freed from the woods by a careless logging company. Durand and Haas play the town’s sheriff and deputy, respectively. The film will hold its world premiere Oct. 16 at this year’s Screamfest LA.
