Made for around $300 (wtf) in total, writer/director Jacob Perrett‘s Weird Fiction was filmed back in 2017-2018 and is now being put out by Wild Eye Releasing this coming spring.
This looks and feels like a true low-budget indie horror film that the filmmakers call “a love letter to 80’s horror” which you probably picked up on in the trailer. It definitely has that late 70s/early 80s horror vibe to it.
Plot Synopsis:
The Collector’s Halloween special comes only once a year. Don’t miss out on stories that will chill your bones. A group of teens go searching for a missing body, a babysitter is stalked by something malevolent, a porn star finds a mysterious bite on the back of his neck, and two girls uncover something that may very well lead to the end of the world.
Weird Fiction will release on May 12, 2020.
What did you guys think of the trailer? Willing to give this throwback horror anthology a try?
