‘Cold Ground’ Trailer is the First Ever French Found-footage Movie
The lucky ones freeze to death…
Are you ready for a new French nightmare? Cold Ground is allegedly the first French found-footage movie.
The action is set in the 70’s, in the mountains. Melissa and David, two young journalists, leave for the French-Swiss border to investigate a strange case of cattle mutilations and record testimonies. Yet, once they get there, the scientific team they were supposed to meet has gone missing.
Cold Ground stars Gala Besson (Les garçons et Guillaume à table!, Horsehead, Little Gay Boy), Doug Rand (The Transporter, Arthur and the invisibles, Albert est méchant), Phillip Schurer (Black Venus, Ma Femme est une actrice), Geoffrey Blandin (Dead Crossroads, The Wild Diaries), introducing Maura Tillay and Fabrice Pierre.
“It’s been a tough January for the team. We spent most of the month shooting in the snow, in extreme conditions, sometimes in dangerous places,” said director Director Fabien Delage post-shoot. “Shooting in the cold night and day isn’t easy and I’d like to thank the cast and crew for their efforts and involvement. This adventure could not have been possible without them and the result will live up to all our expectations.”
Here’s the new trailer.
After scaring up a strong theatrical run, Oddity director Damian McCarthy’s Hokum heads home to Digital this week.
Settle in for a spooky supernatural chiller as Hokum arrives on all Digital platforms to rent or own beginning June 2, followed by a Blu-ray/4K Ultra HD Combo and DVD release on August 11, 2026.
Adam Scott (“Severance”) stars in Hokum as reclusive novelist Ohm Bauman. When he retreats to a remote Irish inn to scatter his parents’ ashes, the staff’s tales of an ancient witch haunting the honeymoon suite take hold of his mind. Disturbing visions and a shocking disappearance draw Ohm into a nightmarish confrontation with the darkest corners of his past.
Peter Coonan (“The Alienist: Angel of Darkness”), David Wilmot (“Station Eleven”), Florence Ordesh (“Departure”), Michael Patric (“Frontier”), Will O’Connell (“Game of Thrones”), Brendan Conroy (“Bodkin”), and Austin Amelio (“The Walking Dead”) also star.
Get a peek at the upcoming physical media release below, including a few special features.
Spooky Pictures’ Roy Lee (Weapons) & Steven Schneider (Insidious) produce alongside Image Nation’s Derek Dauchy (Late Night with the Devil), Tailored Film’s Ruth Treacy, Julianne Forde, & Mairtín de Barra, and Cweature Features’ Ken Kao & Josh Rosenbaum.
I wrote in my review for Bloody Disgusting, “A quaint Irish hotel with a deeply haunted history awaits an American writer in McCarthy’s third outing, continuing his streak for folkloric tales of supernatural karma and spine-tingling terror with a dark sense of humor.”
What’s next from Damian McCarthy? He’s currently writing a haunted house movie, but recent comments suggest he may be moving into other genres beyond that upcoming project.
