Byron Allen’s Freestyle Digital Media Acquires Chicago Indie ‘Room Six’
Freestyle Digital Media, the digital film distribution division of Byron Allen’s Allen Media Group, proudly announces the acquisition of VOD rights to the psychological horror/thriller ROOM SIX, which will be available to rent/own on all North American digital HD internet, cable, and satellite platforms, as well as on DVD, starting this Friday, May 2.
ROOM SIX tells the story of Maxx — a college student working the night shift for her summer job at a rural, vacant rundown motel before the late-night arrival of two brothers. After a few suspicious incidents, Maxx’s curiosity (or paranoia) gets the best of her, and she decides to investigate. Maxx quickly finds herself in danger as she uncovers what lies hidden in the brothers’ room.

Co-written and co-directed by Hobart Miller & Michael Panico, ROOM SIX was produced by Devon Gulati, Katherine Williams, and Ariella Khan. The featured cast includes Sophia Echendu (‘Maxx’), Mickey O’ Sullivan (‘Red’), and Jack Ball (‘Danny’).
“ROOM SIX is a raw, gritty thriller that takes place across one eventful night at a rural motel. We wrote this story after reflecting on our own self-destructive tendencies and coping mechanisms,” said filmmakers Hobart Miller & Michael Panico. “The intention of ROOM SIX is to highlight how unresolved trauma in one’s past can shape their future and to explore what it means to reach the point of no return.”
Freestyle Digital Media negotiated the deal to acquire ROOM SIX directly with the filmmakers.
