I don't know about you, but we love family movie nights. That's why I was excited to learn more about the efforts of Walmart and P&G to bring more quality entertainment to families by releasing the Secrets of the Mountain movie! It will premiere THIS Friday (April 16th) at 8/7c on NBC. Having had the chance to check out some of the sneak peek, exclusive background materials and clips...I'm very excited to watch it with my family! It's not very often that there's a movie on TV that the whole family can enjoy, so I really appreciate what Walmart and P&G have come together to do.

Nail-biting plot summary:
Somewhere between the demands of her career, her ex's wedding and her kids' busy schedules, Dana James is noticing her tight-knit family starting to unravel. An unexpected offer to purchase her family's mountain property sets up a weekend road trip, which she hopes will bring her family back together. But when they arrive, they quickly learn that the mountain is much more than it seems. An ancient secret and a treacherous quest will test the family like never before. It's an 'edge of the seat' thriller that reminds us that when times are tough, families don't run away from problems - they run back to each other.

Here's a Secrets of the Mountain sneak peek:



The soundtrack for the movie was produced by music mogul, Randy Jackson and includes original tracks from popular artists such as:
  • Alisan and Ilsey
  • Ashlyne Huff
  • Brooke White
  • Jordin Sparks
  • Josh Kelley
  • Kevin Hammond
  • Lona Hines
  • Paper Tongues
  • The Afters
  • Tom Leonard
