Big Foot based frightener Exists has been picked up for distribution by Lionsgate. The deal comes on the heels of the film’s world premiere at SXSW, and marks director Eduardo Sanchez’s return to the found-footage genre he ushered in with 1999’s game-changer The Blair Witch Project.

Written by Jamie Nash (Lovely Molly), Exists follows a group of friends as they’re stalked and slaughtered by Big Foot in the Texas woods. Cast includes Dora Madison Burge (”Friday Night Lights”), Roger Edwards (Bad Kids Go to Hell) and Denise Williamson (pictured).

Denise Williamson spoke with Clatto about her experience on Exists in an exclusive interview late last year. She told us about her character, working with Sanchez, shooting in the woods, and what monsters truly terrify her. To peep the interview, click here.
