Unearths petrifying initial sneak peek for single-location horror film featuring an eerie tree-confined concept
In the depths of an eerie forest, unsuspecting protagonist Noah, clad in office attire, finds himself trussed up like a Christmas goose. A chilling teaser for the upcoming psychological thriller, Bark, paints a terrifying picture as day melds into night, leaving Noah to fend off the creepydarkness alone.
The unsettling clip debuts with Noah's desperate screams for help, which echo through the woods, unanswered. As day turns night, the suspense crackles. A silhouette comes into view, teasing his potential savior, but as it gets closer, there's a sinister twist. The figure turns out to be his tormentor, rather than a rescue, hinted by the dark secrets that seem to linger over his past.
In the world of horror, Bark strays from the standard bloodbath of films like Don't Move and Wrong Turn. Instead, this chilling tale seems to be the result of revenge, unfolding like the unraveling pages of a dark chapter in Noah's life. Clips of his previous life flash on screen, punctuated by the words 'lies', 'truth', 'guilt', and 'revenge', alongside the ominous phrase 'some secrets don't stay buried'.
One could speculate about Noah's misdeeds based on his corporate look, perhaps he's a slimy businessman finally paying for his shady dealings.
The official synopsis from Dark Sky Films is stark and brooding: "Nolan Bentley wakes up in the heart of a remote forest, tied to a tree with no memory of his past. As time mercilessly ticks, a mysterious stranger emerges, compelling Nolan to face the ghosts of his past and fight to survive, all while finding the key to escape the deadly trap."
Crafted by Marc Schölermann and penned by Steve Fauquier, Bark boasts a talented cast, featuring Michael Weston and A.J. Buckley of CSI: NY fame.
Bark is scheduled to strike theaters across the US on June 13, so hang on to your seat believe it or not. For more spine-chilling entertainment, don't forget to check out our list of the top horror movies, or stay in the loop with all the upcoming horror flicks waiting to get under your skin.
