Here now is the 4th international one-sheet for Hideo Nakata’s cyberspace horror flick CHATROOM, and it’s actually quite redolent of the first we saw. This time however, the text has been translated, and the character featured in the poster has been changed from female to male lead (right)? Otherwise, the mosaic-like image of a person’s face comprised of tiny web-icons remains intact.

Starring my girl Imogen Poots (below), as well as Aaron Johnson, Matthew Beard, Hannah Murray, Megan Dodds, Michelle Fairley, Daniel Kaluuya, Nicholas Gleaves, Jacob Anderson, Tuppance Middleton, Ophelia Lovibond and Richard Madden – CHATROOM commences:

When jaded teens Jim, Eva, Emily and Mo meet William online, and they’re seduced by his charisma. But William isn’t what he seems. He’s calculating and manipulative and doesn’t have time for people in the real world. Jim is vulnerable and he has no idea how dangerous his new friendship with William will be. When Jim confesses he’s on anti-depressants, William knows he’s found a victim. He vows to help Jim off his drugs, and the rest of the group fall in line.

What begins as friendly advice to help Jim becomes twisted and Eva and Mo realise the deadly game William’s playing, but the wheels are in motion. Jim is set on a path of self- destruction, and is going to do the unthinkable. As Eva, Emily and Mo try to save Jim, William begins a terrifying game of cat and mouse chasing them across the internet, shutting down their systems, and cutting them off from his victim. Fantasy meets reality when William and Jim are face to face in rush hour on the underground. Without the faceless security of the online world, everything becomes real. It’s now a race against time to save Jim, but the clock is ticking… and we fear someone must die.

We’re still awaiting global release dates.
