A trailer for Saban Films and Lionsgate’s supernatural action/horror film Armed Response has been released and it looks like…something. Honestly, it reminds me a bit of Event Horizon in that the overarching system that runs the setting of the film somehow knows the dark secrets of the soldiers that investigate it.

Directed by John Stockwell and written by Matt Savelloni, Armed Response stars Wesley Snipes, Anne Heche, Dave Annable, and Seth Rollins. Armed Response hits limited theaters and On Demand on August 4th.

Synopsis:
A team of special forces soldiers approach the designer of a high-tech military compound to investigate the disappearance of another team guarding the facility. The compound, known professionally as a Temple, is an artificial intelligence powered facility designed for interrogating high level prisoners. Upon entering the Temple, the soldiers quickly find the earlier team horrifically slaughtered but no evidence as to who is responsible.

Almost immediately, the crew begins to experience strange and horrific supernatural phenomena as they attempt to uncover who killed the previous team. Soon enough, they find a lone survivor, a dangerous terrorist who may hold the key to who killed the soldiers. But as the story goes on, we’ll learn that there’s more to it than we’ve been told and a dark secret the soldiers share may hold the key to surviving The Temple.
