Classic Slasher Feel Goes ‘7 Down’
Looking a bit inspired by the classic slasher Prowler, we’ve landed the trailer for 7 Down, written and directed by Tyler L. Schmid.
You can check out the 7 Down website for more, or purchase it at RHR Home Video. More on the7 Down Facebook page.
“Seamus (Mike Crawford), Damion (Kenton Masloskie) and Craig (Adam Flores) are primed to go out of town for a haunted hay rack ride. The beer and vodka flow freely until the three friends are thrown a curve ball when Seamus’ younger sister, Mickey (Raychel Fejfar), invites three of her friends to join the party: Ted (Josh Crawford), the shy photography student who often goes unnoticed; Julianna (Gaia Foxx), who cannot escape the loss of her parents and little brother; and Salvatore (Sam Sajid), the greasy mafia connected drug dealer.
The tension rises when the friends realize that they are lost. The fear of driving at night increases their hysteria. The situation worsens when Ted’s car breaks down. A cell phone call to AAA, and a liter of vodka sparks the inevitable. Who is the killer and what is the motive for his madness?” 
The Wayans are out to cancel the Cancel Culture with Scary Movie, and the cast assures it will do just that.
“They sort of have an across-the-board style,” Anna Faris tells EW. “It’s always been a part of the Wayans Brothers, their electricity. ‘Can we offend you? Will you still love us? Come on, you still love us, don’t you?'”
Regina Hall concurs, promising the “boundary-pushing” sixth installment in the horror parody franchise will “offend everyone.”
EW has shared a batch of behind-the-scenes images from Scary Movie, which hits theaters June 5 via Paramount.
Faris and Hall are joined by fellow franchise favorites Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Dave Sheridan, Lochlyn Munro, Cheri Oteri, Chris Elliott, and Jon Abrahams in the legacy sequel.
The ensemble includes Damon Wayans Jr., Gregg Wayans, Kim Wayans, Benny Zielke, Cameron Scott Roberts, Heidi Gardner, Olivia Rose Keegan, Ruby Snowber, Savannah Lee Nassif, Sydney Park, Kenan Thompson, and Felissa Rose.
Michael Tiddes (A Haunted House) directs from a script by Marlon Wayans, Shawn Wayans, original Scary Movie director Keenen Ivory Wayans, Craig Wayans (Scary Movie 2), and Rick Alvarez (A Haunted House).
The film will slash through reboots, remakes, requels, prequels, sequels, spin-offs, elevated horror, origin stories, anything with the word legacy in it, and every “final chapter” that absolutely isn’t final.
Scary Movie launched in 2000, followed by Scary Movie 2 in 2001. The Wayans’ involvement ended there, but the series continued with 2003’s Scary Movie 3, 2006’s Scary Movie 4, and 2013’s Scary Movie 5.
