I’m noticing director James Mark’s affinity for intriguing supernatural sci-fi and thrills when it comes to his projects. I thoroughly enjoy films like On The Ropes, his 2018 collab with Reel Deal Action’s Can Aydin, Yoon Cha-lee and Phong Giang, although there’s no denying his will to flex his directing muscle through a bit of variety along the way, having done so with action sci-fi Kill Order and its surprise sequel, Enhanced.
This Fall, he’ll be diving deeper into the mystique with Control, which features a cast led by Sara Mitich, George Tchortov, and Evie Loiselle. Saban Films has long since acquired the pic and is releasing the film in select theaters on September 23, prior to releasing the film on demand and digital starting September 27, and for this, we have an official trailer to show folks what they’re in for with a proper James Mark-directed sci-fi actioner.
A mother locked inside a stark room is tasked by an unknown voice to complete increasingly difficult challenges if she wants to save her daughter’s life. As the frequency and intensity of the tasks threaten to overwhelm her, she must piece together half-remembered chapters of her life before imprisonment if she wants to secure her freedom, rescue her child, and escape this waking nightmare. CONTROL is an intensely thrilling sci-fi mystery that will keep you guessing until the final moments.
