Teaser Trailer For New Blumhouse Horror ‘The Gallows’ Released

It’s finally staying lighter later and the temperature is slowly starting to rise, at last summer is almost here. The sunny season also houses the biggest releases (with the exception of STAR WARS) of the year. The studios though are already planning ahead to those dark and dreary nights of autumn. The ones that are perfect for a scary movie. Warner Bros are one such studio prepared for the dark nights and have just dropped a teaser trailer for latest horror venture THE GALLOWS.

THE GALLOWS comes from New Line Cinema, the production house behind A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET, as well as Blumhouse, the studio behind recent horror smashes INSIDIOUS and SINISTER. The premise of THE GALLOWS is thus;

Twenty years after an accident caused the death of the lead actor during a high school play, students at the same small town school resurrect the failed stage production in a misguided attempt to honour the anniversary of the tradegy – but ultimately find out that some things are better left alone.

Though the plot is reminiscent of something from a Point Horror novels (those who grew up in the nineties will know what they are) this actually doesn’t sound too bad. It may be an attempt to go back to the old days of the slasher flick and the below trailer has a couple of clever aspects to it. The proof of course will be in the viewing.

THE GALLOWS is released in UK cinemas on 4th September 2015.
