New poster for Cooties warns not to feed the children!

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

The extremely fun-looking horror-comedy COOTIES comes out this fall and while it seems like a long wait at the moment, it will be nice to have around when the Halloween season starts. (And yes, Halloween season starts in September.) To tide us over, we’ve got a new one-sheet from the film to share; see it in full below.

If you missed it, check out the official trailer HERE.

From the twisted minds of Leigh Whannell (co-creator of Saw and Insidious) and Ian Brennan (co-creator of “Glee”), COOTIES is a horror comedy with unexpected laughs and unapologetic thrills. When a cafeteria food virus turns elementary school children into killer zombies, a group of misfit teachers must band together to escape the playground carnage. The film stars Elijah Wood (The Hobbit, Lord of the Rings), Rainn Wilson (“The Office”), and Alison Pill (“The Newsroom”) as teachers who fight to survive the mayhem while hilariously bickering in an uncomfortable love triangle on the worst Monday of their lives.

Opening September 18th, COOTIES stars Elijah Wood, Rainn Wilson, Alison Pill, Jack McBrayer, Leigh Whannell, Nasim Pedrad, Ian Brennan and Jorgé Garcia. The film is directed by Jonathan Milott and Cary Murnion from a screenplay by Leigh Whannell and Ian Brennan.
