Fan of Wolf Creek? How about the awesome giant crocodile movie Rogue? Shit, then you’re in luck! Director Greg McLean is taking on the supernatural with The Darkness, which stars Kevin Bacon and reunites McLean with Rogue star Radha Mitchell.
Formerly titled 6 Miranda Drive, we now have the official trailer for The Darkness, which opens in theaters on Friday, May 13, 2016.
In the film, “As a family returns home from vacation at the Grand Canyon, they innocently bring home a supernatural force that preys off their own fears and vulnerabilities, threatening to destroy them from within, while consuming their lives with terrifying consequences.”
David Mazouz, Lucy Fry, Matt Walsh and Jennifer Morrison also star.
The trailer, below, looks to have a really fun spirit, which isn’t surprising considering what a blast I had watching McLean’s Wolf Creek 2. The “relic” concept is one I enjoy as it harks back to films like Hellraiser, Wishmaster and even The Exorcist; it’s a simple, yet effective way to explain a haunting. The trailer really hones in on “they,” which is the big thing that has me captivated. I have a lot of faith in McLean, so let’s see what he pulls out this coming Friday the 13th!
