The Rising (Future Of Fear)

AWA and acclaimed producer Roy Lee’s Vertigo Entertainment launch FUTURE OF FEAR — a partnership set to bring the future of horror storytelling. This next generation of top horror franchises will be published in graphic works, while Vertigo Entertainment and AWA Studios, will co-produce the film and TV adaptations to bring these tales to life on screen.

THE RISING (Future Of Fear): Deep beneath the Badlands, some secrets were never meant to surface.

Ray and his daughter, Atty, live in a dying industry town built around an intercontinental ballistic missile base that is finally shutting down. But while everyone else prepares to move on, six mysterious patients remain behind — trapped in comas for forty years after an unexplained accident on the base. Then the missile systems begin to glitch. Grass stains appear on the patients’ feet. And Ray and Atty start to realize that something inside the base may not be sleeping after all. From Highlander creator and Prophecy writer Gregory Widen comes THE RISING, a chilling new nightmare where something buried for decades is beginning to stir — and what rises with it could threaten us all.
