The monsters are fake. But the terror is real.
CBS Films has finally nailed the marketing for this weekend’s Hell Fest with today’s brand new “throwback trailer,” which hearkens back to the ’80s and gives the brand new slasher flick a retro-authentic makeover. Is it bad that we kinda want to watch the entire movie like this?!
Amy Forsyth (The Path, Rise), Reign Edwards (MacGyver, Snowfall) and Bex Taylor-Klaus (“Scream”) star, alongside horror icon Tony Todd (Candyman, Hatchet)
The film by Blumhouse regular Gregory Plotkin, who directed Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension and edited Get Out, is set at a horror theme park during Halloween where a night of fun turns deadly as a costumed killer begins slaying unsuspecting patrons who believe that it’s all part of the festivities.
“The Walking Dead’s” Gale Anne Hurd is producing via her company Valhalla Motion Pictures. It was previously reported that CBS Films president Terry Press is a longtime fan of the Hell Fest concept, believing it could spark a horror franchise.
Hell Fest was written by Seth M. Sherwood & Blair Butler, and Akela Cooper.
