On tap for ya this morning we have another creepy TV spot for director John Pogue's THE QUIET ONES, the latest supernatural shocker from Hammer Films that is set to haunt theaters on April 25. I'm really digging everything we're seeing from THE QUIET ONES and hope that it will be able to deliver some genuine frights despite its PG-13 rating (just remember that INSIDIOUS was PG-13 as well and gave us some solid scares!).
THE QUIET ONES stars Jared Harris ("Mad Men," THE WARD), Sam Claflin (THE HUNGER GAMES: CATCHING FIRE), Erin Richards ("Breaking In," "Being Human"), Olivia Cooke ("Bates Motel"), and West End theatre actor Rory Fleck-Byrne.
A university student (Sam Claflin, The Hunger Games: Catching Fire) and some classmates are recruited to carry out a private experiment — to create a poltergeist. Their subject: an alluring, but dangerously disturbed young woman (Olivia Cooke of Bates Motel). Their quest: to explore the dark energy that her damaged psyche might manifest. As the experiment unravels along with their sanity, the rogue PHD students, led by their determined professor (Jared Harris of Mad Men), are soon confronted with a terrifying reality: they have triggered an unspeakable force with a power beyond all explanation.
Inspired by true events, THE QUIET ONES is directed by John Pogue from a screenplay by Craig Rosenberg and Oren Moverman and John Pogue, and based on a screenplay by Tom de Ville.
Look for THE QUIET ONES in theaters on April 25.
