GPS the Movie to Debut at American Film Market

Local Producers Take GPS Treasure Hunting To Hollywood

SEATTLE – September 30, 2005 -- In November at the American Film Market (AFM) in Santa Monica, CA, a Washington State-based film studio will premier its thrilling spin on GPS treasure hunts with the suspense/thriller motion picture GPS the Movie. The AFM is the world’s largest motion picture trade event and is host to over 7,000 attendees and participants from over 70 countries. Seattle-based writer/director Eric Colley has teamed with co-writer Hallie Shepherd to produce the feature-length film. Colley is also the creator of IndieClub.com, one of the largest networking organizations for filmmakers with over 30,000 members and 80 chapters around the world.

GPS treasure hunting has been growing in popularity for over 5 years with more than 150,000 active hunts in 200 countries. This relatively new sport has fast become a worldwide phenomenon. GPS treasure hunting is a sport in which “hunters” use a handheld global positioning satellite system, while combing forests, resorts, parks, even indoor locations in search of “treasure.” Now, the GPS device that fueled an underground hobby has morphed into a film that is sure to be a crowd favorite and one that might make hunt enthusiasts think twice before leaving on one of these adventures.

Based on true events, "GPS" tells the story of a pair of scavenger hunt enthusiasts who embark upon a camping trip with a group of old friends, following the trail of a mysterious invitation with hopes of finding fortune. When the trail leads them to photographs of a masked woman tied to a chair along with a new set of coordinates, their search takes a frightening turn. The mountains and forests that give western Washington its reputation for natural beauty contrast with the infamous Green River, which served for decades as a horrific dumping ground for the notorious serial killer.
