First Look at ‘Texas Chainsaw 3D’s Alexandra Daddario in ‘We Summon the Darkness’
Thanks to Fabien M., we have the first still and art for We Summon the Darkness, directed by My Friend Dahmer‘s Marc Meyers.
In the film, starring Texas Chainsaw 3D‘s Alexandra Daddario, the killing spree of murderous Satanists has already led to 18 deaths throughout America’s Heartland.
Three best friends Alexis (Daddario), Val and Beverly embark on a road trip to a heavy metal music festival. Naive, they bond with three seemingly fun-loving dudes and soon the group heads off to Alexis’ country home, a very secluded place, for an afterparty. What should be a night of fun and youthful debauchery may instead take a dark, deadly turn. With killers on the loose, can anyone be trusted?
The film also stars Alita: Battle Angel‘s Keean Johnson, with Jackass madman Johnny Knoxville, Maddie Hasson (God Bless America), and Amy Forsyth (“Channel Zero: Dream Door”).
Here’s some early sales art out of the EFM in Berlin.
