The horror title Foreclosure was picked up by Virgil Films in 2013. Since then, the film has secured a 2015 release, on multiple formats.

Also, the film stars Michael Imperioli ("The Sopranos"), Wendell Pierce and Spencer List. More details on the film's release are hosted here. For more on the story, Bill (Imperioli) moves into Queens, New York. He is taking over a family member's home. But, this neighbourhood is not ideal. Most of the local residents have lost their homes to foreclosures, or they have simply walked away from their property. But why? Ghosts haunt Bill's new manor and he must uncover the dead's secrets. Or, he will be tormented forever. Foreclosure will also be released on DVD. The DVD release date is set for February 10th.

Virgil Films has closed a Us deal in Toronto on the horror tale Foreclosure starring Michael Imperioli from The Sopranos.
Virgil plans a theatrical and VoD release in the first quarter of 2014 in what will be its third release of a film by writer-director Richard Ledes following Fred Won’t Move Out and The Caller, which both starred Elliott Gould.
Foreclosure is set against the fall-out from the financial crisis as a man and his son and father-in-law travel through a landscape of vacant properties in Queens, New York, to the house of a recently deceased relative.
At the house they discover a disturbing photograph in the basement that kicks off a horrifying series of events.
Virgil Films president Joseph Amodei brokered the deal with Josh Braun of Submarine Entertainment. Ged Dickersin serves as producer and Joseph Infantolino is the executive producer.

In Fred Won’t Move Out, writer/director Richard Ledes digs into one of American film’s most fertile fields by tapping the improvisational abilities of Elliott Gould. Ledes last directed Gould for the 2008 corporate-crime thriller The Caller, but when he decided to do a smaller, more personal story inspired by his own family, Ledes turned once more to the veteran actor’s versatile skills. The impetus for the film came from the director’s own experience with his aging, infirm parents and their inability to maintain their lives in the house where Ledes had grown up. The characters were inspired by the members of Ledes’ immediate family, with Gould taking the patriarchal role of Fred. But in case that didn’t already create an intimate enough scenario, Ledes went a step further by shooting the film in his parent’s actual house. Fred Won’t Move Out is making...

A few years ago, there was much ado in Hollywood about the box-office failures of Iraqi War and terrorism-centric films. In 2007, In the Valley of Elah only picked up $6 million domestically, while Rendition, starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon, only grossed $9 million nationwide, despite its stars’ tabloid-making romance. The same year, The Kingdom and Lions for Lambs failed to make bank, and later, films like Stop-Loss couldn’t quite manage to make an impression at the box-office.
The much-discussed reason for the failure of such films? American audiences wanted escapism when they headed to the theater, not a reminder of our bleak,...

Michael Imperioli has been cast as the lead in writer-director Richard Ledes' horror-thriller "Foreclosure."
The former "Sopranos" star joins Wendell Pierce, Bill Raymond, Jeff Burchfield, Meital Dohan, Brandon Gill, Spencer List, Tristan Laurence Perez, William Stone Mahoney and Roger Robinson in the creeper.
With a tagline of "ghosts don't move out," "Foreclosure" sets its action in a nearly empty, economically depressed neighborhood block, amid the real-life context of the mortgage crisis where so many homes are bank-owned.
Ged Dickersin ("City Island") is producing the project, which Ledes will begin shooting in Queens next week.
"Michael Imperioli is a great actor with a deep understanding of filmmaking," said Ledes. "Like a jazz ensemble, I can't imagine a better artist to join the two cats with whom I've had the privilege to work previously and who are back for 'Foreclosure': Wendell Pierce and Bill Raymond."
