The body horror film Lace Crater has received a trailer, which can be seen below. The basic story is a group of friends go on a trip and one of them sleeps with a ghost which sets off a series of physical, emotional, and psychological changes.
All Ruth (Lindsay Burdge) wanted was to get away for the weekend. Escaping to the Hamptons with friends after a bad breakup, she finds an unexpected connection with Michael (Peter Vack), a stranger who shows up in her room one boozy night. They have great chemistry, and she finds herself inexplicably drawn to him. There’s only one problem: Michael’s a ghost, and a one night stand with him leaves Ruth with aftereffects that can only be described as supernatural. As she suffers through mucous-laden night sweats, glitchy hallucinations, and the occasional tar-black ooze, her friends become too disgusted to support her. Ruth must figure out for herself if she can reintegrate into society – or if she even wants to.
Directed by Harrison Atkins, produced by Lawrence Dei, Adam Kritzer, and Joe Swanberg, Lace Crater stars Lindsay Burdge, Peter Vack, Chase Williamson, and Keith Poulson. It will open in limited theaters on July 29th, in LA on August 5th, and then will get a national rollout afterwards.
