“MILE 7”: A New Horror Film in Southern Oregon!
MILE 7 is a gritty psychological survival horror short film inspired by true events, written and developed by actor and filmmaker Sean Zerbe, with plans to shoot in Southern Oregon.
The story follows an experienced hiker whose peaceful overnight adventure spirals into a terrifying fight for survival when disturbing warnings and unsettling encounters reveal that he may not be alone.
For Zerbe, whose acting credits include The Bold and the Beautiful, Days of Our Lives, and Luc Besson’s June & John, the project brings together two passions: filmmaking and the outdoors.
