Trick or Treat, Here’s the ‘Hellions’ Trailer!
Bruce McDonald’s Hellions, which will have its Canadian premiere at the 40th anniversary of the Toronto Internation Film, will arrive in theaters, digital and VOD September 18th.
Back in March we told you that IFC Midnight acquired U.S. rights to Pontypool director Bruce McDonald’s Hellions (read our review), which made its world premiere in the “Park City at Midnight” section of the 2015 Sundance Film Festival.
We now have the official U.S. trailer for Hellions, which “takes place on Halloween night in the town of Waterford, the so-called Pumpkin Capital of the World. Hidden among the trick-or-treaters, a group of masked demonic beings roam the town and come upon Dora, a teenager home alone for the night. Cut off from the outside world and under siege in her isolated home, Dora will need to defend both her body and soul from the relentless evil beings known as hellions.”
The film, with a screenplay by Pascal Trottier, stars Chloe Rose, Robert Patrick, Rossif Sutherland, Rachel Wilson, Peter DaCunha and Luke Bilyk. The film was produced by Frank Siracusa and Paul Lenart.

When best friends Glen (Stephen Dorff) and Terry (Louis Tripp) stumble across a mysterious crystalline rock in Glen’s backyard, they quickly dig up the newly sodden lawn searching for more precious stones. Instead, they unearth The Gate — an underground chamber of terrifying demonic evil. The teenagers soon understand what evil they’ve released as they are overcome with an assortment of horrific experiences. With fiendish followers invading suburbia, it’s now up to the kids to discover the secret that can lock The Gate forever . . . if it’s not too late.
If you’ve never seen The Gate, it’s now streaming on Prime Video and Tubi.
