Sometimes, when faced with an extraordinary situation, all you can do is ask the void, “What the fuck is that?” No, it’s not productive, but it sure helps to vocalize your own confusion at the events unfolding around you. Such is the case in this clip from the new eco-horror The Spore.
Watch our exclusive look at The Spore:
The Spore is split into several vignettes that tell the story of a world falling apart. Fleeing from civilization as a horrific plague ravages mankind, Meadow gets a lift from a stranger. When she sees that the driver is gruesomely infected, Meadow escapes and takes refuge in a cabin that’s abandoned…or is it? The apocalypse started days earlier when an evil spore, long-dormant beneath an ancient ice field, was awakened by global warming. Now, as ten strangers try to evade the madness, some must succumb to the hideously mutating fungus and claim the survivors as their bitter prey.
Jeannie Jefferies, Haley Heslip, Peter Tell, and Brian Hillard star in The Spore.
D.M. Cunningham wrote and directed the film. This is his first feature film, previously working on several shorts such as There’s One Inside The House and The Guests.
In an interview with Horror Obsessive, he explained, “George Romero was a key influence [on The Spore]. I was thinking about Night of the Living Dead. Something is happening to a community; no one knows what or why it is.”
The Spore is now available on digital, VOD, and DVD.
