The amateur camera success of movies like Paranormal Activity, REC, and its remake Quarantine haven’t gone by unnoticed, and next year we’ll be seeing another attempt at a scary movie that embraces low budget realism. Here’s what we can expect:
“Guinea Pigs, a co-production between Vertigo Films and The National Film and TV School, is a new film about eight medical volunteers who find themselves fighting for their lives when a drug trial (pro-9) goes horribly wrong. The movie is directed by Ian Clark and produced by Megan Stuart Wallace, the creative team behind the award winning short Outcasts, and 2009’s Jenny and The Worm.”
I’ve been saying that hospitals are an underused horror story setting for years, so I’m obviously optimistic about this film, although the teaser trailer left a lot to be desired. The secret to success for the Paranormal Activity style movies is getting comfy with the lives of the characters in the story, which means the next trailer needs to show us more of the actors and dialogue before we’ll know what to really expect.
