What is Piper’s digital Release Date?
On November 12, 2024, Piper will be available for purchase or rental on DVD and on all digital HD internet, cable, and satellite platforms.
“A children’s legend turns into a horrifying nightmare in Piper, a wickedly creepy horror-fantasy that tells a terrifying tale of children paying for the sins of their parents,” the synopsis reads. “Émigré Liz (Hurley) moves to a quaint German town with her daughter Amy but ends up in the Piper’s crosshairs when it is revealed she’s hiding a dark secret from her past that puts Amy’s life in jeopardy. Liz and Amy individually learn the truth behind the legend of the Piper who is a cruel and vengeful minister of harsh justice, punishing adults who get away with crimes by taking away their children. No longer a legend of yesteryear, the Piper is real with his judging eyes set on Liz and her dark secret. The girl’s only hope for salvation comes when she falls for a young and mysterious street magician, Luca. Can he save her from the Piper’s clutches?”
Alongside Gleb Fetisov and Alexander Buchman, Waller is a producer and authored the screenplay for the film, which is based on a narrative by Duncan Kennedy. Robert Daws, Ryan Webber, Tara Fitzgerald, Mia Jenkins, and Jack Stewart are also part of the film’s cast.
“The idea of transforming a children’s fairy tale into a dark and multi-layered contemporary story has always fascinated me,” explained Waller. “It allowed me to create a hybrid world out of a past and present Hamelin where restless medieval spirits play upon the consciences of our modern-day characters, drawing them into a tug of war between love and vengeance, guilt and denial, penance and retribution that spans centuries. While doing so, I wanted to maintain an ambiguity in the storytelling as to how various events can be interpreted, both as a deliberate manipulation by the locals to perpetuate a Piper myth that maintains strict law and order in Hamelin, or as a vengeful supernatural spirit from the past who sniffs out the guilt of those who have gotten away with a crime, and punishes them by taking away their children.”
