Summary
- A mysterious horror film titled 'Slayground' had a teaser trailer shown.
- The film is directed by Jeremy Saulnier and set to release this fall.
- Details remain scarce, with A24 releasing a cryptic teaser.
A mysterious action horror movie, "Slayground," from filmmaker Jeremy Saulnier is slated for release this fall. A red-band teaser trailer for the A24 production was recently shown in theaters, sparking intrigue due to its sparse details.
The teaser primarily consists of security-camera footage from a haunted house, the film's titular setting. While a "this fall" release date was indicated, A24 has remained tight-lipped regarding an official synopsis. Rumors suggest the lead actor, Cory Michael Smith, plays a convict hiding in a haunted house.
Saulnier, known for "Rebel Ridge" and "Green Room," wrote, produced, and directed the film. The cast includes Chase Sui Wonders, Sophie Wilde, Young Mazino, Stephen Root, James Badge Dale, and Imogen Poots. The film was initially referred to as "October" when announced last year.
The trailer directs viewers to a website with a countdown clock, adding to the mystery surrounding its release. It is unclear if A24 plans a direct streaming debut or a traditional theatrical rollout. The film's secretive nature echoes A24's past surprise announcements, such as the Elizabeth Holmes documentary.
