The first teaser trailer for the upcoming indie horror flick, Backwater, was released tonight via Facebook. Click here to watch the teaser trailer. Make sure that you “like” the page while you’re there! In Backwater, “Cass and Mark venture into the wilderness for a weekend of camping and relaxation. Soon after their arrival, they realize they are not alone in the woods. When Mark meets Glenn, a loner fishing in a secluded area, and Cass meets officers Marshall and Helm, something seems slightly off. While common sense says there is no cause for concern, they can’t shake the feeling that something is wrong. Something is happening beneath the scenes. And the truth is far more sinister than meets the eye.”
Backwater is written and directed by Christopher Schrack; and stars Justin Tully, Andrew Roth, Liana Werner-Grey, and Thomas Daniel. The film, created by Lucid Gem Productions, will be released through Amazon.com in 2012. Can’t wait! I think the thing I like most about the teaser is that it shows a realistic plot. I’ve been camping and there’s a sort of real life terror that you feel when you think a bear is outside your tent…let alone a person or persons who want to harm you. The creators of The Blair Witch Project tapped into this fear and it worked. I hope that Backwater sees the same kind of success!
