Trailer For The Influencer Horror Comedy FOLLOWERS From the Producers of ANNA AND THE APOCALYPSE
Terror Films has released a trailer for a new horror comedy titled Followers, which comes from the producers of Anna and the Apocalypse and Monsters. I’m normally not a fan of found-footage movies, but this one looks like it could be fun. The film is said to be in the tradition of Get Out and Black Mirror, and it “combines horror with black comedy to satirize today’s influencer generation while bringing a fresh new spin to the found-footage genre.”
The movie was directed by the late Marcus Harben and to create an authentic found footage feel, over 70% of the movie was filmed by the actors themselves. This is the synopsis that was shared:
What starts as hilariously bad YouTube videos develops into a warning to the world about a shocking new strain of supernatural serial killer.
Jonty, a failing influencer with an ambition to reach over a million followers, will stop at nothing to become famous. A new start at university brings with it hopes of a resurgence in his popularity when a demonic presence appears in his student house. Jonty decides to stream his and his housemates’ experiences with this supernatural entity to gain the fame and fortune he’s most been craving. But at what cost?
Followers stars Harry Jarvis (Netflix’s Knight Before Christmas), Loreece Harrison (Black Mirror), Erin Austen (The Royals), Daniel Cahill (Anna and the Apocalypse), Nina Wadia (Aladdin), Orion Lee (Star Wars: Episode VIII – The Last Jedi), and Tanya Burr.
Followers premieres on digital platforms in North America on March 24th
