Unlisted Owner

Synopsis of Unlisted Owner (2013)

-Unlisted Owner* is a found-footage horror thriller directed and co-written by Jed Brian, produced by Lawford County Productions. Presented as compiled crime scene evidence from handheld cameras and police dash cam footage, the film explores the “Owner Killings” in the fictional small Illinois town of Lawford County.

The story unfolds across two intertwined events. First, the Roth family-recently moved into a long-vacant house with a sinister, unlisted history-meets a brutal end at the hands of an unseen killer on October 23, 2010. This tragedy shakes the community and draws media attention.

The next night, a group of six friends-Gavin Landers (Gavin Groves), Griffin Potts (Griffin Groves), Tyler Brian (Tyler Landers), Jed Groves (Jed Brian), Andrea Mills (Andrea Potts), and Haidee Summers (Haidee Corona)-overhear a radio report of the murders while heading to a nearby campsite. Realizing the crime scene is just a mile away, curiosity overrides caution, and they decide to detour and break into the deserted house to investigate.

What begins as a thrill-seeking adventure quickly spirals into terror as the group encounters the same enigmatic, identity-concealed assailant. Armed only with their cameras, they become unwitting targets in a night of escalating suspense and survival horror, their footage capturing the harrowing final moments.
