emma-caulfield-timer-movie-poster-mq-01-506c0This is something that I picked up off twitter earlier today but is unconfirmed and not officially announced by the Sitges Film Festival yet.

Apparently, Timer is getting it’s European premiere at this year’s festival. From the look of the trailer it doesn’t exactly look like a standard Sitges film, but we’re a sucker for a good rom-com and may well give it a try.

Check out the trailer at the official site below:
