Directed by Gregory Plotkin, Hell Fest follows three teenagers, played by Amy Forsyth, Reign Edwards, and Taylor-Klaus, into a Hell Fest. There is an urban legend about a teenage girl being killed last year at Hell Fest, which is a strong foreshadowing.
As the movie plays out and verified by the movie trailer, someone in the fest is killing the teenagers. Security and others are saying it’s part of the fest.
Gale Anne Hurd is a legend as a producer. She brought us cutting-edge movies like The Terminator. The vignette of you talking about Hell Fest is super. Enjoy!
The poster below shows the characters with the focus on the lead, Forsyth, someone the audience can focus on even though the movie has an ensemble cast.
The next poster shows the theme park barker to the left. He is an interesting character, and the actor who plays him sees him as a pirate who wears things he collects.
Here is the 80s Trailer the studio produced for promoting the movie. I like it. I’d love to see this style come back to movie trailers. They are so simple and easy to follow because it tells you what the movie is about not the whole story. The narration is awesome, too.
Plotkin edited both Get Out and Happy Death Day. He directed one of the Paranormal Activity movies. Hell Fest is scripted by at least seven screenwriters.
