LMN To Premiere <i>The Night Stalker</i> Starring Lou Diamond Phillips.

In a press release:

 

NEW YORK, NY (MAY 9, 2016) – LMN acquired THE NIGHT STALKER, starring
Golden Globe(R) nominee Lou Diamond Phillips (Longmire) and Critic’s
Choice Award winner Bellamy Young (Scandal), and will premiere the
film on SUNDAY, JUNE 12 AT 8PM ET/PT. Based on the book of the same name
by Philip Carlo, the movie will compete at the New American Cinema
competition at the Seattle International Film Festival on June 4th.

Known to many as the “Night Stalker,” Richard Ramirez was a cruel and
prolific serial killer who murdered 14 people and terrorized Los Angeles
in the summer of 1985. Though Ramirez was ultimately convicted of these
atrocities and remained on death row for nearly 30 years, suspicion
loomed of him having committed additional crimes. _THE NIGHT STALKER_
tells the story of Kit (Young), an attorney who travels to San Quentin
on an impossible mission to clear the name of Harrison Johnson
(Hawthorne James, Seven), a death row inmate in Texas whom she
believes has been wrongly accused of murders perpetrated by Ramirez
(Phillips). Kit lived in Los Angeles during the fear-tinged summer where
Ramirez terrified its citizens and confronting him dredges up old and
frightening memories of her own past. As the days count down to the
Texas man’s execution, Kit confronts Ramirez about his unspeakable
crimes in search of an elusive confession, plunging into intense
psychological depths in her quest for the truth.

THE NIGHT STALKER is produced by Laboratory Productions and MRB
Productions. Producers are Alisa Tager (Enemy at the Gates, Serenity)
and Matthew R. Brady (The Truth about Emanuel, Grassroots). The film
was written and directed by Megan Griffiths (Lucky Them, Eden), an
award-winning writer and director whose previous films have screened at
Toronto Film Festival, Sundance, South by Southwest and Tribeca.
Griffiths is represented by William Morris Endeavor and Untitled
Entertainment.

I provide testosterone to the site. You won’t be reading about how nice a actress looks in a dress or how much of a hunk Matt Bomer is in my reviews. I describe colors using words like brown, not taupe. My twitter name is @staffaroadtrip because I love road trips and have done two different 48-state road trips since 2008. My favorite show is White Collar.
