‘The Outer Wild’ Brings Upon the End of Man [Trailer]
This is the end of man.
From writer-director Philip Chidel (Subject Two) comes the post-apocalyptic sci-fi The Outer Wild, on VOD and in limited theaters September 28, 2018, from Red Hound Films and Chambo Films.
“In this post-apocalyptic frontier western, mankind has given way to a new breed of beast, mutated from man. A survivor named Laura may be the cure to these mutations but she flees to save herself. Aided by a hunter sent to catch her, she braves the dangerous unnatural wilderness in order to find a fabled refuge of freedom — and only there will she discover the fate of humanity at the end of the world.”
It stars Lauren McKnight (So Undercover), Christian Oliver (House of Good and Evil), Jeffrey Vincent Parise (CW’s “Supernatural”), Tory Taranova (Everybody Wants Some), Jimmy Jean-Louis (NBC’s “Heroes”), Zach Roerig (CW’s “The Vampire Diaries”).
Are you ready to go back?
After a record-breaking box office run and an extended cut re-release, A24 and director Kane Parsons’ Backrooms is heading home to Digital.
Backrooms will be available to rent or buy this Tuesday, July 14.
In the film, Chiwetel Ejiofor stars in Backrooms as the owner of Cap’n Clark’s Ottoman Empire, who discovers a strange doorway in the basement of the furniture showroom. He sets out to explore the mysterious, liminal space, walking headfirst into a creepypasta nightmare.
Renate Reinsve (A Different Man) also stars in Backrooms.
Will Soodik wrote the screenplay.
I wrote in my review, “Backrooms is at once complex and sparse, but never repetitive. It might be set in 1990, but it effectively captures modern anxieties and isolation in a way that frequently makes your skin crawl. While the journey ultimately loses steam by its cryptic end, Parsons’ visual representation of the human psyche disturbs like no other.”
YouTube prodigy Kane Parsons makes his feature directorial debut based on his creepypasta-inspired video series, which debuted in 2022 and has amassed over 190 million views to date.
