“We’re being hunted…” “Run!!” Voltage Pictures has unveiled the intense official trailer for an indie horror film called Pitfall, arriving for release in US theaters starting in May this summer. It initially premiered at Screamfest LA last fall. “Watch your step.” After a young man gets separated from his friends while in the woods –he falls into a 10-foot deep pit of spikes, impaling him through the leg, leaving him trapped down there. He quickly learns his fall was not an accident. There is a killer after them – played by none other than Randy Couture. Ha. What a concept! It’s about a scary serial killer guy who torments hikers by trapping them in a giant hidden pit with spikes in it? This is insane! Starring Richard Harmon, Randy Couture, Alexandra Essoe, Jordan Claire Robbins, Matt Hamilton, Stephanie Izsak, Brenna Llewellyn, Michael Ryan. As ridiculous as this premise is, it actually looks legit freaky and super intense! Just when you think it’s over there’s even more – the slasher axe guy, a runaway truck, rope traps in the woods… Dang!
Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for James Kondelik’s horror Pitfall, direct from YouTube:
