Trailer For an Intense Looking Psychological Horror Triller THE DEAD CENTER
I’ve got a trailer here for an interesting new film called The Dead Center. This is an unsettling looking psychological horror thriller set in an emergency psych ward. The movie stars indie filmmaker Shane Carruth (Primer, Upstream Color), who is also a producer on the film.
Here’s the synopsis for the film:
When a very dead suicide victim (Jeremy Childs, Preacher, Nashville) disappears from the morgue, it sets in motion a chain of events that has the power to immolate everything, and everyone, it touches.
Troubled psychiatrist Daniel Forrester (Shane Carruth) is drawn to help a mysterious patient who is brought to the emergency psych ward in a catatonic state with no memory of how he reached the hospital. As if to exorcise his own demons, the doctor feverishly tries to break through to his mysterious patient. But as a spate of mysterious deaths shake the ward to its core, Forrester comes to suspect that there is more to his new ward than meets the eye. As he comes to realise what he’s unleashed, a desperate race against the forces of evil threatens to swallow him whole.
The Dead Center is a smart supernatural thriller that explores the demons that live inside all of us from writer-director Billy Senese, recently hailed as a “masterful new voice in terror”.
I love these kinds of horror films that tell a food story and mess with your head. I feel like this doesn’t have a big budget, but you don’t need a big budget to tell a good, creepy-ass story.
The Dead Center will be released on October 11th.
