Lionsgate has announced that the dark horror film “Bagman” will be available on October 18 via Electronic Sell-Through and Video on Demand.
Directed by Colm McCarthy (“The Girl with All the Gifts”), written by John Hulme, and starring Sam Claflin (“The Hunger Games: Catching Fire”), “Bagman” tells the story of a family that finds themselves ensnared in a nightmare as a malevolent, mythical creature hunts them. For centuries and across cultures, parents have warned their children of the legendary Bagman, who snatches innocent children and stuffs them into his vile, rotting bag—never to be seen again. Patrick McKee (Claflin) narrowly escaped such an encounter as a boy, which left him with lasting scars throughout his adulthood. Now, Patrick’s childhood tormentor has returned, threatening the safety of his wife Karina (Antonia Thomas) and son Jake (Caréll Rhoden).
Sharon D Clarke, Steven Cree, William Hope, Adelle Leonce, Peter McDonald, and Henry Pettigrew round out the film’s cast.
“Bagman” will be available for the suggested retail price of $13.49 on Electronic Sell-Through and $6.99 on VOD.
