A Young Man Unleashes His Twisted Imaginary Friend in The Trailer For DANIEL ISN'T REAL
I’ve got got a trailer here for an upcoming psychological horror thriller coming out called Daniel Isn't Real. The film follows a young college freshman named Luke who ends up resurrecting his childhood imaginary friend Daniel to help him cope with some serious issues that he’s been having. Turns out, his imaginary friend is a pretty twisted and demented dude and ends up causing more harm than good.
The film comes from writer and director Adam Egypt Mortimer (Some Kind of Hate), and it’s an adaption of Brian DeLeeuw's novel of the same name. It stars Miles Robbins as Luke and Patrick Schwarzenegger as Daniel. This looks like it’s going to be a wild and trippy thriller! One quote in the trailer describes it as being "mind-bendingly freaky".
It looks good to me and I’ll give it a go! Here’s the synopsis:
Troubled college freshman Luke (Miles Robbins) experiences a violent family trauma and resurrects his childhood imaginary friend Daniel (Patrick Schwarzenegger) to help him cope. Charismatic and full of manic energy, Daniel helps Luke to achieve his dreams, before pushing him to the very edge of sanity and into a desperate struggle for control of his mind -- and his soul.
The movie also stars Sasha Lane, Hannah Marks, and Mary Stuart Masterson. It comes from Samuel Goldwyn Films and Shudder and it will be released on December 6th.
