A clip from the Seth Rogen-produced horror film Cobweb offers a preview of a scene involving an awkward house visit
Four and a half years ago, Lionsgate – a studio that had once been a prominent force in the horror genre, with releases like The Devil’s Rejects, Cabin Fever, the Hostel films, and of course the Saw franchise – announced that they were developing a genre project called Cobweb with the intention of taking back their “ownership” of horror. We’re now just one week away from having the chance to see the finished film, as Cobweb will be receiving a theatrical release on July 21st… and now a clip from the movie has arrived online, offering a preview of an awkward house visit scene. You can check it out in the embed above.
Directed by Samuel Bodin, who created Netflix’s short-lived French horror series Marianne, from a screenplay by Chris Thomas Devlin (Leatherface), Cobweb has the following synopsis: Eight-year-old Peter is plagued by a mysterious, constant tap, tap from inside his bedroom wall – a tapping that his parents insist is all in his imagination. Peter’s fear grows and he begins to question his parents’ trust. We previously read a synopsis in which it was stated that
a child’s abusive parents always told him that the voices he heard in the walls of the house were only in his mind. But when he discovers that they’re real, he conspires to let them out.The film stars Lizzy Caplan (
Fatal Attraction), Antony Starr (The Boys), Cleopatra Coleman (Infinity Pool), and Woody Norman (C’mon C’mon).Cobweb
was produced by Point Grey’s Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, and James Weaver, along with Vertigo Entertainment’s Roy Lee. Andrew Childs, Vertigo’s Andrew Childs, Jonathan McCoy, and Josh Fagen are the executive producers for Point Grey. Lionsgate’s Jim Miller and Meredith Wieck were in charge of the project. Rogen isn’t an obvious producer for an intense horror project, but we’re also living in a world where Kevin Smith made a horror movie about a man being surgically turned into a walrus and where Danny McBride has co-written three Halloween sequels.What did you think of the
