EXCLUSIVE: Colby Holt and Sam Probst, the Chicago-based filmmakers behind the indie horror thriller Ganymede, have signed with Rewind for management.

Released earlier this month through Kino and VMI Releasing, Ganymede follows Lee Fletcher IV (Jordan Doww), a high school wrestler who develops a crush on his openly gay classmate Kyle (Pablo Castelblanco). Suddenly, Lee finds he is being haunted by a creature that not only lives in his bedroom closet, but also has the ability to invade his thoughts. Joe Chrest and David Koechner also star.
