Rise Release Date and Title Change

The Lucy Liu flick Rise which we showed a steamy clip for last week is finally getting a release date. The film is also getting a sub title which is going to be Rise: Blood Hunter. The theatrical date for now is a limited release on June 1st. Whether or not they will widen the release is unknown at this point.

"Rise" is a supernatural thriller in which a reporter (Liu) wakes up in a morgue to discover she is no longer among the living. She vows revenge against the cult responsible for putting her there and hunts them down one by one. Chiklis plays 'Rawlins,' a haunted police detective whose daughter is killed by the same cult and seeks answers for her gruesome death.
