The Night Visitor films both focus on an unseen entity that watches and haunts its protagonists, and delve into the psychic pathos of the visitors’ victims. The two companies last worked together on Michael Biehn’s directorial debut The Victim, a grindhouse film that starred Jennifer Blanc-Biehn.Anchor Bay Entertainment Canada will be responsible for marketing and distributing both The Night Visitor films in domestic and international marketsfor the next five years, giving the movies a wider range of promotion and viewership potential.
Susan Curran, Director of Acquisitions for Anchor Bay Entertainment Canada, says of the deal, “We are happy to be working with Blanc/Biehn Productions again,” a sentiment echoed by Jennifer Blanc-Biehn and Michael Biehn, “We love Anchor Bay Entertainment Canada and know this is the perfect home for The Night Visitor. We have a great relationship with the team and look forward to working on this.”
Jennifer Blanc-Biehn directed the first film, and star Brianne Davis takes the reins for The Night Visitor 2, with Blanc-Biehn cast in a lead role. The Night Visitor was produced in association with Three Little Birds and Give And Take Productions, written by The Marcus Brothers and Mark Gant, with story concept by Executive ProducerLony Ruhmann , who says of the deal, “I wanted Anchor Bay Entertainment Canada to distribute The Night Visitor films and am so pleased this has come to fruition.”

New York Times Review – “Best, so far, is the more sober, 11-minute “Good in Bed,” starring Jaime Murray (“Dexter”) and Eddie McClintock (“Warehouse 13”) as a divorcing couple brought together, for a moment at least, by that magical bed.”
When Jessy (Jaime Murray) shows up with final divorce papers to Michael’s (Eddie McClintock) hotel room, where he’s been holing up to avoid signing, they end up having one last fling. Doing what they were always good at, the one thing they always achieved in perfect harmony and bliss — they take a nap.
