‘In the Trap’ Poster and Trailer Let the Evil In

Published

on

In Dark Sky Films’ In the Trap, a secluded man who’s convinced an evil force wants to take possession of his soul has his beliefs tested after an alluring woman enters his life.

Described as “a chillingly claustrophobic take on demonic possession and the nature of faith,” Dark Sky Films (House of the Devil, The Innkeepers, Bliss, Starry Eyes) will release the film on VOD platforms and DVD April 10th.

In the film…

“Philip, a young proofreader, has been living in a self-imposed prison. Convinced that an evil force wants to take possession of his soul, he secludes himself in his childhood apartment, the only place where he thinks he’s able to keep himself safe. But a meeting with a mysteriously alluring young woman makes him question his beliefs – have the demons that have haunted him all his life been simply a product of his own imagination, or is this new temptation yet another trap the devil has set for him?”

Here’s In the Trap‘s official trailer and poster art.
