Celluloid Nightmares snatch up Spanish horror flick Atrocious

Well folks it seems all this PARANORMAL ACTIVITY jive is spilling over to Spain because news today has Celluloid Nightmares snatching up worldwide rights to the first-person supernatural horror flick ATROCIOUS. Now don’t write this one off just yet because it’s in the vein of PARANORMAL ACTIVITY… Oh no, there might be more here than meets the eye!

The deal comes straight out of the Sitges International Fantastic Film Festival, where ATROCIOUS had it’s world premiere. The Fernando Barreda Luna film was shot entirely in Spain and produced by Luna’s business partner Jessica Villegas Lattuada on behalf of their production company Nabu Films, and co-producer David Sanz on behalf of Silencio Rodamos, Want some details? Of course you do!

In April of 2010, Spanish police reported the discovery of 37 hours of recorded evidence that shed new light on a gruesome murder investigation. The found footage documents a family of five spending their holidays at their summer house, where brother-and-sister Cristian and July Quintanilla pass the time investigating a terrifying local urban legend. As their investigation intensifies, strange occurrences in and around the house escalate rapidly, before culminating in unspeakable atrocities.

Well I love me a good old fashioned urban legend flick so you can go ahead and sign me up! In case you guys need a bit more convincing than I do we’ve also got the trailer for ATROCIOUS over in our videos section or directly below, so go ahead and enjoy that!

Plans are for Celluloid Nightmares to pimp a new trailer for ATROCIOUS at this year’s American Film Market in hopes of selling this bad boy. My guess is they won’t have much trouble… What says you guys? ATROCIOUS seem like it has some potential or should we just forget about this one?
