Man In The White Van Tackles Tough Subject

Based on a series of true crimes that shook the nation in the 1970s, the film captures a bone-chilling story of a young girl's unimaginable horrors and every parent's worst nightmare. Prone to exaggeration, her parents' disbelief in her tales of being followed leads to a terrifying Halloween nightmare.

"The Man in the White Van is a flat-out frightening story with an incredible ensemble cast, and the teams behind it have produced a film that's both visceral and topical," said Michael Arrieta, Chief Operating Officer at Relativity Media. "Watching this in a crowded theater is truly the best way for viewers to experience this tension-packed thrill ride as realized by Warren and his talented crew."

There have been whispers that this one is really well done and terrifying, as anything involving kidnapped children should be. Looking forward to seeing this in the fall when it releases in theaters on October 11th.
