A Not-So-Psychedelic Bootlegged Trailer For ‘One Way Trip 3D’
Earlier today we told you that Lighting Entertainment would be selling worldwide rights to Markus Welter’s 3D horror slasher film One Way Trip 3D, which focuses on a group of young people falling into the murderous clutches of a madman as they search for hallucinogenic mushrooms in Switzerland’s Jura Mountains.
Described by the producers as “an intelligent slasher film with gothic elements and an unexpected ending,” Bloody Disgusting scored a bootlegged trailer that’s making the internet rounds. I figured it would be a bit more, trippy? Watch it inside.
The cast is headlined by Sabrina Reiter (star of both Dead in 3 Days films), Melanie Winiger, Herbert Leiser, and Martin Loos.“Eight young people drive to the Swiss Jura region, food and tents in the trunk. It’s autumn and high season for a magic mushroom that grows there – the reason for their trip. After a few problems they arrive at the desired location deep in the woods, the tents are set up, the mushrooms are collected and when it gets dark the party starts. Everything is fine until one of the youths wants to get beer and comes back with a blood-covered and smashed face. They don’t know what happened but need to find help. As they discover that their car has a flat tire and their phones don’t work, they seek shelter in a nearby farmhouse. But that’s just where they were supposed to go. In a nerve-racking countdown one after another gets killed by their dangerous haunters…”
The feature directorial debut of Emily Robinson (Eighth Grade) is titled Ugly Cry, and Deadline reports that Obscured Releasing has picked up the movie for U.S. distribution.
Ugly Cry is expected to be released in theaters this Fall and later on Digital.
Also starring Emily Robinson, the horror-comedy follows a young Hollywood actress’ dark descent into body dysmorphia as she struggles to fulfill impossible beauty standards.
Ryan Simpkins, Aaron Dominguez and Robin Tunney also star.
Emily Robinson wrote the film in addition to directing and starring.
“Ugly Cry contemplates the horror of having a body in the age of the internet. What’s scarier, cringier, and funnier than modern society?” said Robinson. “Our collaboration with Obscured began at SXSW, which made it clear no one understands our genre-bendy feature better than they do. We’re thrilled to be partnering with them for our North American release.”
“Emily Robinson’s feature debut represents the discovery of a true talent in filmmaking,” said Obscured Releasing. “Her writing is so acute, her performance as Delaney finds all the nuances within the character, and her masterful direction of an incredible cast reminds us of the early thrillers of Hitchcock with an acerbic modern lens.”
