With Live Free or Die Hard using digital terrorism as a major plot point, the concept of distance intrigue is a hot item right now. Independent film Confess uses something similar – information brokerage and intrigue. With stars Ali Larter (“Heroes”), Eugene Byrd (8 Mile), and William Sadler (The Shawshank Redemption), the movie is coming to DVD on August 28th from MTI Home Video.
The press release announcing the release describes the story as follows: Terell (Byrd), a disillusioned ex-hacker, uses strategically placed spy-cams to capture compromising footage of those who slighted him in the past, broadcasting the video via the Internet. Recognizing its power, and working in tandem with his accomplice Olivia (Larter), Terell targets CEOs, politicians, and members of the power elite. Soon his every action is front-page news, law enforcement has labeled him a new breed of terrorist, and the movement he spawned is now spiraling out of control!
The August 28th DVD release will include commentary from writer/director Stefan C. Schaefer and biographies of the major players involved in the movie.
