FREESTYLE DIGITAL MEDIA RELEASES CRIME-THRILLER “FILTHY ANIMALS”

James T. North’s Debut Feature Sets Limited Theatrical Run as well as Digital Release on North American VOD Platforms and DVD on December 13, 2024

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, December 13, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Freestyle Digital Media, the digital film distribution division of Byron Allen’s Allen Media Group, proudly announces the release of the crime-thriller FILTHY ANIMALS, which is now available to rent/own on all North American digital HD internet, cable, and satellite platforms, as well as on DVD, on December 13, 2024. The film will also open in limited theaters beginning the same day.

Set on Christmas Eve, FILTHY ANIMALS tells the story of two outlaw misfits, Lars, a thrill-seeking drug enthusiast, and Freddy, a bodybuilder recently out of rehab, who hunt down child sexual predators.

Written and directed by James T. North, FILTHY ANIMALS was produced by Elyusha Vafaeisefat, Kendra Gage North, and James T. North. The cast features Raymond J. Barry (‘Lester’), Austan Wheeler (‘Lars’), Ryan Patrick Brown (‘Freddy’), Mena Elizabeth Santos (‘Bella’), and Luke Wessman (‘Jack Valentine’).

“My first feature, FILTHY ANIMALS, is an amazing collaboration of incredibly talented people that have been by my side from the very beginning,” said writer/director James T. North. “I made this film to raise awareness of the awful act of child trafficking and deeply hope that those who perpetrate this act are brought to justice. While tackling a very serious subject matter, we chose to tell this story as a crime-thriller meets a western with a dark holiday twist. Thank you to Freestyle Digital Media and our ‘Filthy Family’ for the continued support and partnership in bringing this film to audiences nationwide.”

Freestyle Digital Media negotiated the deal to acquire FILTHY ANIMALS with Glen Reynolds of Circus Road Films.
