‘Exit 8’ Final Trailer – Liminal Horror Thriller Opens in Theaters Friday

Published

on

Ahead of its theatrical release this weekend, Neon has debuted a dizzying final trailer for the Japanese liminal horror psychological thriller Exit 8.

Based on the popular video game created by Kotake Create, the film follows a man trapped in an endless sterile subway passageway as he sets out to find Exit 8.

The rules of his quest are simple: do not overlook anything out of the ordinary. If you discover an anomaly, turn back immediately. If you don’t, carry on. Then leave from Exit 8.

But even a single oversight will send him back to the beginning. Will he ever reach his goal and escape this infinite corridor?

Kazunari Ninomiya (Letters from Iwo Jima) stars with Yamato Kôchi, Naru Asanuma, Kotone Hanase, and Nana Komatsu (Silence).

Your Name producer Kawamura Genki directs from a script he co-wrote with Kentaro Hirase.

Exit 8 starts grounded in reality, and before you know it, you’ve slipped inside a strange and disturbing world,” said Ninomiya. “When the film ends, I hope audiences feel their own ‘ordinary’ lives are somehow a continuation of what they just saw — that the boundary between the film and everyday existence has blurred and seeped into their reality.”

Kenji Yamada (Godzilla Minus One), Yuto Sakata, Akito Yamamoto, and Taichi Ito produce.

Exit 8 premiered at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival and went on to play the Toronto International Film Festival, Sitges Film Festival, Beyond Fest, Busan International Film Festival, International Film Festival Rotterdam, and this week’s Overlook Film Festival.

Meagan Navarro wrote in her review out of TIFF, “The true magic of Exit 8 lies with its impressive ability to recreate the feeling of playing a game, as you find yourself scouring the walls, floors, and ceilings of a cosmic backroom hallway to assist the Lost Man in his search for anomalies.”

In theater April 10, Exit 8 is rated PG-13 for “some bloody images and terror.”
