Samera Entertainment gives you a quick look at the latest offering from Midnight Releasing

 Written by ~ Nick R. Murphy

Coming this month to VOD, a rundown bowling alley becomes ground zero for gruesome doings in HARVEY, a new psychological thriller from our good friends at Midnight Releasing.

Filmmakers Ranelle Golden and Johnny Alonso join forces to direct this intense suspense drama that stars Darius Autry as Harvey, a hotheaded young man fed up with everything and everyone around him. Things soon reach their breaking point when a drinking binge thrusts Harvey into a fugue state, causing him to blackout and awake the next day in the aftermath of a murder. Is Harvey responsible for the killing? Or is it all an elaborate setup meant to make Harvey look like the bad guy? Not even Harvey knows which is true, and he's willing to do whatever it takes to get to the bottom of this mystery. However, his search for the truth is packed with many pitfalls, and if he digs too deep, he might be the next dead body.

​

"I've been describing Harvey as an 80s vibed, modern day psychological thriller. It takes place in a small town. If you go through ten streetlights, you've blown through town. I've been through towns like this on the historic Route 66. Places forgotten. Seen better days."  - Johnny Alonso (co-director)

​

Harvey was shot in late 2020 on location at the Oviedo Bowling Alley in Oviedo, Florida. It has the proud distinction of being one of eight indie films from 2020 that was cleared by the Screen Actors Guild during the initial outbreak of the COVID pandemic. The film also stars Erin O'Brien, Allison Meister, Andrew Rogers, Kevin Winn and co-director Johnny Alonso as Keith, the high-strung bowling alley manager.

"I dig Ranelle's writing, so when she said she wrote Keith for me, I knew the dialogue would be something to sink my teeth into. I had a lot of room to play with this character." - Johnny Alonso
