The Film DEVON Explores Every Parent's Worst Nightmare 

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- No good deed goes unpunished in DEVON, the latest acquisition from distributor and streaming innovator Cineverse (NASDAQ: CNVS). When a group of friends try to uncover the truth behind an unsolved disappearance, they unwittingly find themselves at the center of a terrifying mystery. The film which will premiere exclusively on the Company's streaming service SCREAMBOX is the highly anticipated first feature of Jersey Shore alum Jenni "JWOWW" Farley. DEVON will premiere on SCREAMBOX on November 11, 2024.

Following their daughter's mysterious disappearance, Devon's parents never stopped searching for the truth. After the asylum she disappeared from was condemned, their questions looked like they would remain forever unanswered. Years later, a cryptic website recruits five courageous individuals to explore the abandoned asylum and discover what happened to the girl. Unaware that they are embarking on a perilous, one-way journey, these individuals delve into the sinister depths with only their equipment, leading to a terrifying and deadly experience.

A longtime admirer of the genre, Farley takes viewers into a found footage mystery which draws from the real-life horrors of the unknown. And the debut director knows all about real, with the next season of the MTV sensation "Jersey Shore: Family Vacation" premiering later this year. 

"I am thrilled to be diving into the horror space alongside Cineverse and SCREAMBOX who have the industry and fandom knowledge to see that DEVON lands in the hands of the right audience." said DEVON director Jenni "JWOWW" Farley. "As a longtime reality TV veteran, I'm excited to kick off this new chapter in the horror movie genre and hope that DEVON is just the beginning."

The North American rights were negotiated by Brandon Hill, Executive Director of Acquisitions, and Jenni "JWOWW" Farley.
