‘The Lockdown Hauntings’ Is a Supernatural Serial Killer Movie Starring Tony Todd [Trailer]
“How do you stop a serial killer who’s already dead?”
Howard J. Ford, the director of 2010’s zombie movie The Dead and its sequel, is back with the brand new supernatural horror movie The Lockdown Hauntings, which was filmed during last year’s lockdown.
Set and shot during the COVID-19 lockdown that brought the movie industry to a screeching halt last year, the “supernatural serial killer” movie stars horror icon Tony Todd (Candyman).
“With the streets now empty, it isn’t just nature that is taking advantage of this unprecedented global disaster. Spirits are freer than ever before and the spirit of a notorious serial killer, AKA ‘The Locksmith’, is back from the dead and he has even more potential victims. Can self-isolating detective George Parker (Angela Dixon) with the guidance of paranormal expert Jordan Myers (Tony Todd), prevent more young women from becoming victims of The Lockdown Hauntings?”
Evolution Pictures will release the film in the UK and Ireland on digital platforms May 3rd.
Christopher Landon (Happy Death Day, Freaky) is staying busy here in 2024, directing not only the werewolf movie Big Bad but also an upcoming thriller titled Drop.
The project for Blumhouse and Platinum Dunes is being described as a “fast-paced thriller,” and Deadline reports today that Violett Beane (Truth or Dare) has joined the cast.
Newcomer Jacob Robinson has also signed on to star in the mysterious thriller. Previously announced, Meghann Fahy (“White Lotus”) will be leading the cast.
Landon recently teased on Twitter, “This is my love letter to DePalma.”
Jillian Jacobs and Chris Roach wrote the script.
Michael Bay, Jason Blum, Brad Fuller and Cameron Fuller — “who brought the script in to Platinum Dunes” — are producing the upcoming Drop. Sam Lerner is an executive producer.
THR notes, “The film is a Platinum Dunes and Blumhouse production for Universal.”
