I hope you guys weren't planning on sleeping tonight because this poster is haunting. The Last Exorcism is the first film from Daniel Stamm that's getting some wide recognition and has Eli Roth standing behind the plate as producer. His name of course will put butts in the seats, but we all know it's going to be Stamm's skill as a director that will make this film or break it. But with his first film A Necessary Death taking home AFI audience awards in 2008, expect good things.
With no trailer, it's too early to say whether or not this will be good, but the poster is terrifying and simple which breeds much hope since at least one person on the production knows what "scary" is, even if it's just a photographer. Check out the poster below if you dare, and scroll further for the official synopsis of the film.
This poster proves that you should never challenge a demon to a game of limbo. They will win for sure.
Yikes.
When he arrives on the rural Louisiana farm of Louis Sweetzer, the Reverend Cotton Marcus expects to perform just another routine “exorcism” on a disturbed religious fanatic. An earnest fundamentalist, Sweetzer has contacted the charismatic preacher as a last resort, certain his teenage daughter Nell is possessed by a demon who must be exorcized before their terrifying ordeal ends in unimaginable tragedy.Buckling under the weight of his conscience after years of parting desperate believers with their money, Cotton and his crew plan to film a confessionary documentary of this, his last exorcism. But upon arriving at the already blood drenched family farm, it is soon clear that nothing could have prepared him for the true evil he encounters there. Now, too late to turn back, Reverend Marcus’ own beliefs are shaken to the core when he and his crew must find a way to save Nell – and themselves – before it is too late.
