Described as Host meets Dungeons & Dragons, GroupChat imbues screenlife horror with a bit of hocus pocus.
Watch the trailer below, where you can also see the poster by celebrated horror artist Graham Humphreys.
A grieving game master’s new online role-playing adventure spirals into a deadly reality, trapping players in a supernatural fight for survival.
“This is an insanely personal film to me, as I wrote it to help deal with the passing of my own father,” writer-director Dan Brownlie tells Bloody Disgusting.
Marcel Jortzik, Amy Tara, Toby Wynn-Davies (Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey), Georgie Rogers, James Grimm, and scream queen Debbie Rochon (Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger IV) star.
Rebecca Wheeler (Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey) handled the practical effects, and a mortician was on hand for technical advice — so the film boasts an undertaker-approved zombie.
With post-production complete, the UK film is currently submitting to festivals. You can follow Brownlie on Instagram for updates.
