A whole lot of blood…a quick flash of boobies…and Christian Slater. Yup, it must be the red-band trailer for Michael A. Nickles’ supernatural horror film PLAYBACK. Ah…scroll below and bask in the madness y’all!
Aside from the obvious, what I dig about this shite is the way story deals with film reels that harbor evil – something that’s been said to be the actual case in THE EXORCIST. Of course, comparisons between PLAYBACK and THE EXORCIST end there, but it’s an interesting angle nonetheless.
Upon us theatrically March 9th:
When a group of high school students dig into their town’s infamous past they unwittingly unlock an Evil that corrupts and destroys them. Possessing its victims through video playback and using them for malevolent purposes, it closes in on one specific soul, threatening to expose the town’s deepest, darkest secret. Johnny Pacar, Toby Hemingway, Ambyr Childers, Jonathan Keltz, Alessandra Torresani (below), Jennifer Missoni, Mark Metcalf and Daryl Mitchell also appear in the joint.
You can currently find PLAYBACK on iTunes.
