Interesting facts

Vanish is a 2015 thriller film written and directed by Bryan Bockbrader. It stars Maiara Walsh, Austin Abke, Bockbrader, and Adam Guthrie. Tony Todd and Danny Trejo appear in cameos. Walsh plays a kidnapping victim who both manipulates her captors and becomes a pawn in their individual plots. The entire film takes place from inside the van used to kidnap her character. Dark Sky Films released it to video on demand and on DVD on February 24, 2015.

Production

Bockbrader moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting and began a career in commercials. After his father died suddenly, he chose to follow his dreams and make a film. At first, the film was just going to be about him and his friends in the California desert; this changed when Trejo joined the cast.

Shooting took 13 days. Bockbrader said the fast schedule was stressful and precluded having any fun on the set. Guthrie described the film's main theme as girl power, as Walsh's character is the strongest character in the film. Guthrie said that the van used for the shooting was so large that when it broke down, the first tow truck they called was unable to tow it.
