Blanc-Biehn Productions' The Girl Takes Home Top Award at 2016 Burbank Film Festival
 
(LOS ANGELES, CA / September 22, 2016) – Independent film company Blanc-Biehn Productions' horror film The Girl earned a win for Best Feature Film in the Sci-Fi-Fantasy- Horror-Thriller category at the 2016 Burbank Film Festival in Burbank, California.
 
 
The tense sci-fi thriller stars Michael Biehn, and is directed by his Blanc-Biehn Productions (and real-life)  partner Jennifer Blanc-Biehn. The Festival triumph bodes well for the film's domestic release in January 2017.
 
 
"Michael and I are obviously so proud of this movie," said Blanc-Biehn of The Girl, released in the UK under the title Psychopath. "As a director, it's gratifying enough to see your work realized on the big screen; to win an award too… there are no words."
 
 
The Girl - written by Bradley and Kevin Marcus, executive produced and based on a screenplay by Lony Ruhman - also stars Tia Carrere (pictured, attached), Evie Louise Thompson, Tristan DeVan, Lorraine Ziff, Hallie Jordan and Nick Nicholson. The movie explores the kidnapping of a teen (Thompson), her rescue by the kidnapper's young boy (DeVan) and the sadistic horrors that await them both.
 
 
"Evie and Tristan were so riveting in conveying the horror at the heart of The Girl, Tia Carrere brought a mother's quiet misery to life and Michael… well, Michael always delivers an amazing performance," said Blanc-Biehn.
