Lionsgate has acquired domestic distribution rights to “The Quiet Ones,” a supernatural thriller starring Jared Harris and Sam Claflin, the studio said Tuesday.

Inspired by true events, John Pogue’s film follows a professor who disappears with his students to create a poltergeist. Lionsgate had already acquired U.K. distribution rights and has a strong track record with frightful thrillers such as “Cabin in the Woods” and the “Saw” franchise.

Lionsgate plans to release this movie April 25, 2014, the same day as Screen Gems’ “No Good Deed.” If Lionsgate keeps the date, it would open a week after “Transcendence,” the directorial debut of Oscar-winning cinematographer and long-time Christopher Nolan collaborator Wally Pfister.
