SHADOWS: Family is the Last Line of Defense in Michael Matteo Rossi’s New Thriller

By: John M Jerva

Coming off the success of the no holds barred indie actioner The Handler, filmmaker Michael Matteo Rossi is striking while the iron’s hot with his newest thriller Shadows. Featuring a pretty impressive cast, the film, which proves that family is everything especially when the bullets start flying, is poised and ready for a release and we have the first look of the new key art for you below!

Official Synopsis: A young low-level drug dealer is reunited with his estranged mom and uncle to protect him when a ruthless drug kingpin puts a hit on him.

Shadows stars Rahart Adams, Francis Capra, David Labrava, Krista Allen as well as genre favorites Eric Etebari and the one and only Vernon Wells.

Rossi, per usual, wore many hats on this production serving as a producer along with writing the script and directing. Rossi is really making a case for himself as one of the leading indie filmmakers working in the industry today.

I recently had the honor of interviewing Rossi for The Handler last month and spoke in length along with star Chris Levine who also has a role in Shadows! Listen to the podcast below!
