Devil's Well Kurtis Spieler

Wild Eye Releasing has announced a January 23rd release date for writer/director Kurtis Spieler's DEVIL'S WELL, which is said to be "full to the top brick with bloodcurdling chills".

Starring Bryan Manley Davis, Chris Viemeister, David Alexander, Kristen Seavey, and Anne-Marie Mueschke, the film shows what happens when 

Karla Marks mysteriously vanishes while conducting a paranormal investigation with her husband into the Devil's Well, an underground location reported to be a gateway straight into hell and the site of ongoing strange phenomenon. A year after her disappearance, a group of investigators go back to uncover the truth about Karla, and are faced with evil forces greater than they ever imagined.

If that synopsis made you guess that this is a found footage movie, it appears that you're at least partially correct. There is definitely a found footage style on display in the trailer below, complete with a character telling the person holding the camera to "Document everything." I can't tell if the entire movie is supposed to be in found footage style, though. Some shots in there might not have been shot by a character… I'm not sure.

We'll definitely know for sure when DEVIL'S WELL is released next month. Copies of the DVD can be pre-ordered on Amazon.
