"A party crasher that is out of this world." Quiver Distr. has released an official trailer for an indie horror comedy titled Useless Humans, marking the feature directorial debut of filmmaker Stephen Ohl. This sounds and looks like one of those extra wacky, shoestring budget indie films that is ambitious but actually impressively entertaining. A 30th birthday -- and the survival of mankind -- are left hanging in the balance after a mysterious alien creature crashes the party, forcing four childhood friends to save the night. Starring Josh Zuckerman, Rushi Kota, Davida Williams, Luke Youngblood, Edy Ganem, Maya Kazan, Joey Kern, and Iqbal Theba. This surprisingly looks like some good, stupid fun with a terrible man-in-suit monster and more shenanigans. Might actually be a good time, I want to watch this. Check it out below. Here's the first official trailer (+ poster) for Stephen Ohl's Useless Humans, direct from YouTube:...

How is Hooked Up the first and only horror movie to be shot completely on an iPhone camera? I mean, we’re living in an age of found footage oversaturation that’s exploring every possible movie-viewing-medium, be it through watching a computer screen (Unfriended) or wearing concealed spy glasses (V/H/S), so the fact that there isn’t an Entire found-footage-iPhone movie in existence makes me think this stale subgenre may have some fresh vitality left. Unfortunately, none of that reinvigorated energy emerges throughout Hooked Up - an aggravating bit of bro-horror that’s built on a few cheap jump scares, disgusting dialogue delivered by unlikable leads, and a sloppily undercooked haunted house story that’s dropped like a bad cell call.

Pablo Larcuen’s hormone fueled sex-cation opens with the introduction of Hooked Up‘s two lead characters, Tonio (Jonah Ehrenreich) and Peter (Stephen Ohl). As Peter slouches over their apartment toilet,...

In what amounts to Hooked Up’s only clever, knowing moments, the found footage vacation horror film opens with severe retching. Clearly, Peter (Stephen Ohl) vomits from the amount of alcohol he’s ingested post-breakup with a girl named Lisa, but it really seems as if each heave and purge is in dialogue with his friend Tonio’s…

Stephen Ohl and Jonah Ehrenreich are ready to embark on an uninhibited party across Barcelona in the official trailer for their upcoming horror film, ‘Hooked Up.’ The thriller’s intriguing clip was released by its distributor, Uncork’d Entertainment, which is set to unveil the movie on VOD on April 7, and DVD on June 9. First-time feature film director, Pablo Larcuen, both helmed and co-wrote the horror comedy with Eduard Sola. ‘Hooked Up’ was also executive produced by Jaume Collet-Serra, who’s known for helming the Liam Neeson action movies ‘Non-Stop,’ ‘Unknown’ and ‘Run All Night,’ as well as making his feature film directorial debut with the 2005 horror thriller remake, ‘House [ Read More ]

A dark, loud, found footage horror film set in a Barcelona apartment block at night. No, not that one – with not a fireman in sight, on a lads’ holiday following a bad breakup, two awful young Americans hook up with girls in a bar and retire to a creepy old apartment block for sex. It’s all fun and games until someone ends up bleeding from the balls.

A film which starts out with one of its characters vomiting into a toilet for a good five minutes, Hooked Up is resolutely hard to like. Its two leads are a terrible pair, one being a borderline rapist, the other a violent creep who struggles to hold his booze and makes far too many hand gestures when he gets stressed. Tonio acts like Jay from The Inbetweeners...

You know, I really have to learn to act on my impulses. A couple of years ago I was talking with friends about how we should make a movie just using the iPhone as a camera. Well, we never did, but apparently the idea was pretty sound.

According to filmmaker Pablo Larcuen, his new flick Hooked Up is the first ever feature film shot entirely on an iPhone, and now Raven Banner has acquired world sales rights to the film, which premiered at last year’s Sitges.

Stephen Ohl, Jonah Ehrenreich, and Julia Molins star in the flick, which promises "Party, alcohol, sex & blood… in Barcelona!" Jaume Collet-Serra produces.

Synopsis

Two young friends from New York travel to Barcelona to get over the break up of one of them. But things won’t go as expected and they will end up trapped in a house where they will have to...

Around two years ago we here at Dread Central were talking about using the iPhone to make a feature length horror movie. Since then there have been several. We really have to start acting on these ideas, damn it. It sucks being right sometimes. In any event, here's your first look at the artwork and trailer for the latest.

Pablo Larcuen's found footage flick Hooked Up will be playing at the Sitges Film Festival. Stephen Ohl, Jonah Ehrenreich, and Julia Molins star.

Synopsis

Two young friends from New York travel to Barcelona to get over the break-up of one of them. But things won’t go as expected, and they will end up trapped in a house where they will have to fight an evil girl and the evil inside them.
