A few hours ago we secured the exclusive world premiere for Antonio Negret’s SECONDS APART, one of eight new After Dark Originals. Well, looks like another poster under the banner is crashin’ the party, as a new international one-sheet has just debuted for Simon Fellows’ reality horror show THE TASK. Get a gander below!
Penned by Kenny Yakkel (DEAD AIR, 51):
Something diabolical is taking place on the set of THE TASK, a new reality show in which players complete terrifying missions within the confines of an abandoned prison, hoping to win a hefty cash prize. As six young students explore their new environment, malicious spirits make their presence known in the most gruesome ways imaginable. The contestants become unwitting pawns caught at the centre of a blood-soaked night of terror. Only one girl survives to tell the tale.
Sounds like a decent bit of fun to be had. It seems reality-show based horror kind of went out of vogue in the last few years, so it’ll be interesting to see how this Fellows handles the material.
Alexandra Staden, Victor McGuire, Adam Rayner, Antonia Campbell Hughes, Ashley Mulheron (below), Amara Karan, Tom Payne, Marc Pickering, Texas Battle (good name), Sam Stockman, Rob Ostlere, Atanas Srebrev, Jonas Talkington, Radoslav Parvanov and Valentin Ganev all play a part in the film.
THE TASK will be released sometime this September.
