The trailer for Cell, the adaptation of Stephen King‘s book, which will debut at Horror Channel’s FrightFest in August, has just landed, as has the first poster.
John Cusack and Samuel L. Jackson star in the film, while Tod Williams directs.
Here’s the plot.
In this highly anticipated adaptation of Stephen King’s bestselling apocalyptic thriller, John Cusack (1408), Samuel L. Jackson (Django Unchained) and Isabelle Fuhrman (Orphan) star as one of the few survivors of a murderous epidemic fending off bloodthirsty predators who have been dangerously re-programmed to kill by a mysterious worldwide phone signal.
Also starring Stacy Keach (American History X) and Lloyd Kaufman (Tromeo and Juliet), produced by Richard Saperstein (Seven, 1408) and Michael Benaroya (Margin Call, Lawless) and directed by Tod ‘Kip’ Williams (Paranormal Activity 2, The Door in the Floor), Cell is a frightening new story from The Master of Horror.
Cell premieres at Horror Channel FrightFest Thursday 25th August. We’ll be at the festival to bring you full coverage, so keep it THN over the coming few weeks. Here’s that trailer.
