A trailer just hit from the latest horror picture from Eli Roth. Don’t worry, he didn’t direct or write the picture. He gave the helm to newbie director Daniel Stamm and put his name on the poster so studios would fund the picture and audiences would go see it. You know, like what Michael Bay did for Samuel Bayer on the Elm Street remake or Peter Jackson did for Neil Blomkamp on District 9.
Well. A movie with a complete cast of unknowns about a demonically possessed girl, told in documentary style with “found footage.” It’s like Paranormal Activity, except with scary and gruesome images spread throughout the entire movie instead of just the last five minutes. How refreshing.
Personally, I need to see more before I have a solid opinion of the movie one way or another, but I won’t have to wait for that much longer. The movie is set to premiere this August 27th.
