Not sure if it’s the return of Scream: The Series, or that the remake train has temporarily derailed, but 90’s teen murder is in the air…
“The town of Downers Grove looks like your average suburban neighborhood — but Downers Grove has a disturbing secret…. For the past eight years, one senior from every high school graduating class has met a bizarre death right before graduation day. And this year, Chrissie Swanson (Bella Heathcote) has a terrible feeling that she is going to be the one to die. Can Chrissie survive the curse of Downers Grove or will she, like those seniors before her, fall prey to the town’s deadly secret?”
Directed by Derick Martini (Hick, Lymelife), written by Bret Easton Ellis (American Psycho, The Rules of Attraction) & Derick Martini, & based on the story Downers Grove by Michael Hornburg (Bongwater), I have a feeling we aren’t seeing the whole story in this trailer…and that’s definitely a good thing. I’m instantly brought back to a simpler time. The days where everything good wasn’t ruined even before you park your car in the theater lot. This film might be good. It might not be. Either way, I commend its approach to advertising, & we’ll keep you posted.
The Curse of Downers Grove will begin a theatrical run on August 21st, followed by VOD, DVD, & Blu-Ray release September 1st.
