A new clip for the upcoming horror comedy Cooties has arrived and it shows Elijah Wood speaking with Allison Pill when an incredibly awkward Leigh Whannell pops into the conversation to discuss the weather. Trust me, it’s as uncomfortable as it sounds. You can see it below, courtesy of Collider.
The synopsis for Cooties reads:
From the twisted minds of Leigh Whannell (co-creator of Saw and Insidious) and Ian Brennan (co-creator of “Glee”), COOTIES is a horror comedy with unexpected laughs and unapologetic thrills. When a cafeteria food virus turns elementary school children into killer zombies, a group of misfit teachers must band together to escape the playground carnage. The film stars Elijah Wood (The Hobbit, Lord of the Rings), Rainn Wilson (“The Office”), and Alison Pill (“The Newsroom”) as teachers who fight to survive the mayhem while hilariously bickering in an uncomfortable love triangle on the worst Monday of their lives. COOTIES will be one of the debut releases of the newly-launched Lionsgate Premiere label.
Whannel co-wrote the script for Cooties alongside Ian Brennan. On top of Wood, Pill and Whannell, the film stars Rainn Wilson, Jorge Garcia, and Jack McBrayer.
The film comes out in theaters and on VOD tomorrow, September 18th.
