After screening to great acclaim on the festival circuit, Dan Berk and Robert Olson’s twisty thriller “Body” has secured distribution.

Oscilloscope Laboratories has acquired North American rights to the film, which stars veteran indie actor Larry Fessenden. The film’s official synopsis reads: “A darkly funny and twisted journey taking place entirely on one unforgettable Christmas Eve, ‘Body’ revolves around a trio of college coeds whose dalliance with breaking and entering goes horribly awry. Sneaking off to a secluded mansion to party, the young girls are faced with dire choices after they unexpectedly encounter the property’s groundskeeper. Following a freak accident, the girls find themselves entangled in a Hitchcockian nightmare steeped in tension, suspicion, double-crossing, and murder, where no one is to be trusted and a new twist lies around every corner.”
