A new festival poster has been released for Vincent Masciale‘s horror film Fear, Inc. which is set to premiere at this year’s Tribeca Film Festival. Sounding like something of a horror version of The Game, the film revolves around a horror buff who signs up for a mysterious service that promises to bring customized scares to your doorstep, but from the sounds of it things go south.
Fear, Inc. stars Abigail Breslin, Lucas Neff, Caitlin Stasey, Chris Marquette, Stephanie Drake, and Mark Moses, and will be screening as part of the midnight lineup at this year’s fest. As such, you know I’ll be checking it out and reporting back later next week.
What if there was a company you could call that, for a premium, will bring your greatest fears to life? You don’t have to leave your house, your office, or your vacation; the scares are customized to your tastes and arrive at your doorstep when you least expect it. But like texting an ex at 2am, what sounds like a great idea at the time, can end up getting you killed.
When horror movie enthusiast, Joe Foster (Lucas Neff) and his girlfriend, Lindsey Gains (Caitlin Stasey), are handed a business card for such a company, Joe’s curiosity gets the best of him.
As the Fear, Inc experience seemingly begins, scares start popping up right out of Joe’s favorite horror movies, quickly turning him into a kid in a candy store; if the kid was a self righteous thirty year old and the candy store was the prop room from SAW. After a friend explains the company’s dangerous reputation, his rollercoaster of a journey goes from light hearted fun to uncomfortably realistic as things take a major turn for the worse. Joe’s sense of reality spirals out of control as he’s forced to take responsibility for his actions, no matter the cost.
