When Zack Creger Fiendishly Twisty Horror Film "Barbarian" Stunned in Hollywood in 2022 by using $ 45.4 million against a $ 4.5 million budget, every studio in the city was looking forward to doing everything the next movie low from the recent writer's imagination. This was not because the studios demanded to duplicate success with the low budget of "barbarian". No, all this was to get into a long -term business with an exciting new horror voice, which probably barely scratched the surface of his potential.

After all, Cineu Line Line Cinema won a multi-study for a bidding war on Creger's "weapons" rights, whose premise has been secreted for months. All we knew for some time was that the film was centered on a bizarre incident in which 17 children in a small town in Pennsylvania spontaneously leave their houses at 2:17 pm, spraying at night and never returning.

And they never returned ...

The new line complemented the posting of The deeply scary "weapon" teaser By launching a web site that contains fake news about the city and the characters we will eventually be familiar with. (One of the bits of this page even suggests that The "weapon" can be set in the same universe as "Barbarian".) One week after that, the studio debuted several pictures through Fun weekly. In an interview with the exit, Creger revealed that the film is for more of these missing children, teasing:

"That mystery will encourage you at least half of the film, but it's not the movie. The film will fork and change and reveal and go to new places. It doesn't leave that question, believe me, but that's not the whole movie at all. To the middle point, we moved on the way to the madness ***."

From "Barbarian" we know that Creger wants to pull the rug under his audience. How wild is the "weapon" eventually? Let's look for clues in the trailer that only debuted online.
