Movie piracy can have some pretty harsh consequences. Over the last decade studios and government organizations have been diligently working to try and end the illegal activity, so when they actually do catch somebody they typically bring the hammer down extremely hard, suing people for ridiculous amounts of money. But if you try and pirate a copy of the new horror comedy John Dies At The End you're apparently not just risking your bank account - you're risking your life.
Magnolia Pictures has released a new "Anti-Piracy Trailer" for the new movie and in the spot they warn that anybody who tries to illegally download the movie could meet with a very, very unpleasant end. Watch it below!
Directed by Don Coscarelli (Bubba Ho-Tep) and based on the novel by David Wong (senior editor at Cracked.com), John Dies At The End tells the horrifying story of two college dropouts work to stop the spread of a new street drug called Soy Sauce, which has the power to send users across time and space. The problem, however, is that when some of them come back they aren't entirely human anymore.The film stars Chase Williamson, Rob Mayes, Paul Giamatti, Clancy Brown and Doug Jones and has gotten some mixed reviews while doing its film festival tour at places like Sundance and Toronto. Look for it in theaters on January 25th and you can find it on VOD and iTunes now.
