*full disclosure: an online screening of this film was provided by Midnight Releasing. Directors: Quin Davis and Wade Stai. Writer: Quin Davis. Cast: John Bernath, Megan Davis, Caitlin Singer, J.A. Cuffs Bratten, Brandon Lee Pittman, Tiffany Ann Bicheler, and Trinidad Amaya. It is amazing how many filmmakers start in horror with their first feature film. Both directors Quin Davis and Wade Stai are getting their feet wet in this slasher, titled Animus. Thankfully, their first attempt at horror is an exciting time. In the story, a killer awaits five film students in an isolated asylum. Unfortunately, only Maya, played by Megan Davis, has any backstory or depth of character. The minor characters are underdeveloped and they barely serve a purpose in the picture. Other film elements such as the shooting style brings quality back into this picture. Well shot, Animus is an entertaining horror picture that will satisfy indie fans of the bloody slasher sub-genre.

Tagline: "What's your biggest fear?" The animus is a psychological concept developed by Swiss psychoanalyst Carl Jung. By Jung, it is considered the masculine energy housed in the female's collective unconscious. The animus governs how a woman relates to a man. With that explanation aside, Animus is now a co-production from directors Quin Davis and Wade Stai. This horror film deals with five friends who head out on a paranormal investigation and they find a maniac inhabiting an abandoned hospital. Is the monster there a projection of Maya's hidden fears? Horror fans can find out in March of 2013, when the film releases. For now, the film's official trailer is listed below. Release Date: March, 2013. Director: Quin Davis, and Wade Stai.
