Gehenna: Where Death Lives East Coast Premiere

Lightbox Film Center 3701 Chestnut St, Philadelphia, PA, United States

Synopsis: Paulina and Tyler visit Saipan to scout locations for their company"s newest resort. After finding what was seemingly a perfect location, they discover a hidden cave on the property. They decide to explore it, enlisting the help of Alan, their location coordinator, and his assistant Pepe. The cave turns out to be a long-time abandoned Japanese military base. It dates back to WW2, and unbeknownst to them, existed much earlier. As they move forward, they encounter several dried up corpses, but they are undaunted; their curiosity outweighing their fear... but not for long. With Doug Jones (Pan"s Labrynth, Hellboy) as the creature actor, this is a strong debut feature film from scupltor and costume designer Hiroshi Katagiri (The Hunger Games, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Looper).
