(Salt Lake City, UT) - Utah-based Front Gate Films today announces the start of pre-production of �Friend Request.� The film is a psychological thriller that follows a team of detectives as they try to unravel the mystery of a crazed, on-line psycho that tracks down victims via a popular social media website.

"I've always loved thrillers that have you leaving the theaters thinking 'could that actually happen?' 'Friend Request' is one of those," says Falasco, producer/writer/co-director of the film.

"'Friend Request' will hit home to anyone with a social media account," he adds.

�You never know who�s on the other end of that internet connection,� echoes Mario DeAngelis, producer/ co-director. �We show you what can happen if you�re not careful.�

The film will be shot entirely on-location in Idaho and Utah. Principal photography is slated to begin August 20, 2012.

�So far the support has been overwhelming,� adds Jarrod Phillips, producer. �Idaho and Utah are great places to shoot a film. We think this will be a game changer.�

�Friend Request� is Jason Falasco�s first original film. Producers are Falasco, DeAngelis and Phillips. Falasco and DeAngelis are co-directing.
