"Some will weep for you. Others will laugh." Magnet Releasing has revealed a new official US trailer for the indie horror Funhouse, made by Canadian filmmaker Jason William Lee. This originally premiered in 2019 and is finally getting a VOD release in the next few weeks. When eight "C-list" celebrities from around the globe are invited to compete in an online "Big Brother" style reality show, they arrive at the house and soon realize that they are playing for their very lives; those voted off suffer horrific consequences, broadcast live to the entire world. Scary! But also kind of fun? A very dark remix of celebrity internet voyeur culture. Funhouse co-stars Valter Skarsgård, Gigi Saul Guerrero, Khamisa Wilsher, Christopher Gerard, Karolina Benefield, Amanda Howells, and Mathias Retamal. This isn't the most original concept, but it doesn't look so bad. The reaction shots of all the people watching are hilarious. Here's the...

Tagline: "How Many Likes for a Life?" Funhouse is a co-production between Sweden and Canada. Featuring cast and crew from both territories, Funhouse takes a reality show a little too far. Eight middling celebrities are invited to participate in the event. But, instead of cameras and fame, these housemates are forced to endure torture and confinement. Funhouse was developed by Canadian director Jason William Lee, of The Evil in Us (2016). His latest brings gorifying good times, with Swedish actor Valter Skarsgård, Debs Howard ("iZombie"), Kylee Bush (The Evil in Us) and Christopher Gerard. An update on the film's production and upcoming distribution are hosted here. The long synopsis, from Sandcastle Pictures, talks of a "Big Brother" styled show. The winner will walk away with 5 million dollars. This honey is the trap that lures the eight contestants to the show. When a contender is murdered, the other housemates realize their fate...

*full disclosure: Raven Banner Entertainment is an advertiser on this site. Tagline: "Worst. Trip. Ever." Director/writer: Jason William Lee. Cast: Debs Howard, Danny Zaporozan, Ian Collins and Behtash Fazlali. The Evil in Us is a drug fuelled thriller, from director Jason William Lee. Loosely based on the Bath Salts' incidents in 2012, the film envisions a world gone awry and chaotically altered by genetically enhanced cocaine. This title was released in Canada this past June, via Raven Banner Entertainment and in the United States, on July 4th - by Image Entertainment. The film follows a few cliches, in its writing structure. Never go camping in a horror film. Still, the material is fresh here, mostly thanks to Lee's competent use of the camera. There is always something happening onscreen. And, the visual sphere offers lots of different shooting techniques. Also, there is a positive moral message, in the film. Don't use drugs folks.

A group of young friends travel to a cabin in the woods for a little getaway to drink, do drugs, and party and while they are there, bad shit starts to happen. This film concept has been done to death for horror films but for some reason, there are filmmakers out there who think they can put a fresh new spin on it.
We have a trailer for a new film called The Evil In Us and it's basically the same cabin in the woods movie formula that we've been seeing since Sam Raimi made Evil Dead. This is all his fault! I guess there's a market out there for it though of people still watching these movies, and those people must shop at Walmart because that is where the film is being exclusively released.
Here's the synopsis:

Six school friends meet up for a drug-fuelled weekend on a remote island. What they do not know is the drug they scored is not what it seems; it is actually a new bioactive compound peddled by a sadistic right-wing terrorist organisation. Anyone consuming it is then exposed to a virus causing fits of psychotic rage, mind-bending chaos and cannibalistic murder.
