Our good friends over at HeyUGuys have bagged an exclusive first look at the full trailer for this month’s horror release JOHN CARPENTER’S THE WARD. The film, which stars Lyndsy Fonseca, Danielle Panabaker, Jared Harris, Mika Boorem and Mamie Gummer arrives in UK cinemas on January 21st.
I am actually quite excited to see the film, which is Carpenter’s first horror-thriller type movie since VAMPIRES all of the way back in 1998 (if you don’t count his work on the Masters of Horror series, which debuted on US TV in 2005).
Check out the synopsis from the studio below, and click on over to HeyUGuys to see the new trailer and images.
Synopsis: Kristen, a beautiful but troubled young woman, finds herself bruised, cut, drugged, and held against her will in a remote ward of a psychiatric hospital. She is completely disoriented with no idea why she was brought to this place and no memory of her life before being admitted. All she knows is that she isn’t safe.
The other patients in the ward, four equally disturbed young women, offer no answers; and Kristen quickly realizes things are not as they seem. The air is heavy with secrets, and at night, when the hospital is dark and foreboding, she hears strange and frightening sounds. It appears they are not alone.
One-by-one the other girls begin to disappear, and Kristen must find a way out of this hellish place before she, too, becomes a victim. As she struggles to escape, she will uncover a truth far more dangerous and horrifying than anyone could have imagined.
