'Castle Falls' trailer, synopsis and release date
The official trailer for Castle Falls was released in October, giving a glimpse into the thrilling plot of the film.
The trailer for Castle Falls opens with Mike Wade waking up in a car, which means he is probably living in his car. He is a construction worker and a martial arts person. The clip then jumps to Richard Ericson looking over at his sick daughter, a prison guard who finds out about the hidden money at the same time as Mike Wade does.
The clock starts ticking as Mike, Richard and a brutal gang starts looking for the money in a building that is ordered to be delmolished in 90 minutes. While the plot may look a bit cheesy, the action and martial arts will definitely deliver cool sequences.
The official synopsis for Castle Falls reads:
"After decades of neglect, Castle Heights Hospital is packed with dynamite and ready to be demolished. However, no one knows that a gang leader, now in prison, hid $3 million in stolen cash inside the abandoned building. Now, three desperate parties want the money -- and they have exactly 90 minutes to find it and get out alive." - Rotten Tomatoes
Castle Falls was released in theaters and video-on-demand (VoD) on December 3. For VoD, fans can catch the action-drama on Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV.
