The Pitch: One fateful night in 1948, Thaddeus Wilcox fled his seemingly perfect home in San Francisco with his wife, Fanny, and her mute sister, Mabel, and headed to the Mojave Desert, to a strip known as Silent Creek. It was there he attempted to make contact with an unknown species not of this earth, prompted by frightening visions and his wife's strange dreams. But in doing so, he unexpectedly invited in something even worse, something more sinister than he could've imagined, creating a disturbing pathway to one of the most haunting stories the world we live in may never know ... that is, until now, with "The Unknowable."

“Emerald Run” is one of the weirdest hodgepodges to make its way to theater screens and digital platforms in quite some time. Unfortunately, oddness is just about the only thing this muddled little indie has going for it. Despite the game efforts of lead actor David Chokachi and attractive lensing by Dp Michael Caradonna, the film — directed by Eric Etebari from a script credited to Anthony and Mariuccia Caruso — somehow manages to transition from anodyne desert noir thriller to heavy-handed faith-based melodrama without ever generating sufficient interest to be credible or compelling.
Chokachi plays John Thomas, an unemployed family man who’s understandably anxious about his teenage daughter’s medical condition — some hard-to-diagnose disease is making her life a living hell — and increasingly desperate to find a way to cover mounting medical bills.
