Blumhouse has finally released the teaser trailer for their hotly anticipated found footage chiller DASHCAM. And this first clip certainly does not disappoint. Seems like the new movie from Host filmmaker Rob Savage is likely going to have us all freaking out when it’s released on VOD and in theatres on June 3rd.
The short teaser doesn’t give too much away, but it definitely serves up one hell of a prolonged scare. If DASHCAM is anything along the lines of Host was in terms of sheer terror, then I think we’ve got something special on our hands. Dread Central writer Drew Tinnin caught the film out of TIFF 2021 where he declared the title to be a “mic drop for the found footage genre.” Check out his full thoughts right here.
Here’s a synopsis for DASHCAM courtesy of Blumhouse:
In the midst of lockdown, musician Annie has been livestreaming with her fans, taking their comments, and turning them into rap lyrics as she drives around downtown Los Angeles. Exasperated by her pandemic lifestyle, Annie escapes to the UK to visit her old band mate Stretch, livestreaming the whole way. Her arrival and behavior incite contempt from Stretch’s girlfriend, and she causes chaos when tagging along on his food delivery job.
After an argument, Annie runs off with Stretch’s car and phone, using them to take over his food pickups where she encounters a stranger who asks her for a delivery of a different kind: a frail elderly woman called Angela who is being followed by someone looking to do her harm. Annie identifies with Angela’s plight and with the added incentive of an envelope of cash, she agrees to deliver Angela to a safe address out of town.
Annie and Stretch soon find themselves caught up in a twisted plan with sinister forces at work, and as the night progresses and the chaos builds, they must fight for their lives against a supernatural creature intent on making Annie its new host.
