New Horror Film 'Polaroid' Will Develop Your Worst Fears

With virtually everyone having a more sophisticated phone in their pockets than some of the best professional cameras of decades past, there's a romantic quality to taking photos with actual film. With the upcoming Polaroid, a group of teens will learn that maybe it's best for physical media to completely die, otherwise, they could be the ones killed off. Check out the all-new trailer above.

The film's synopsis is as follows:

"From the producers of The Ring and The Grudge and based on the award-winning short by Lars Klevberg, comes the next iconic and bold new vision in horror: Polaroid. High school loner Bird Fitcher has no idea what dark secrets are tied to the mysterious Polaroid vintage camera she stumbles upon, but it doesn't take long to discover that those who have their picture taken meet a tragic end."

The film stars Kathryn Prescott (Finding Carter), Mitch Pileggi (The X-Files), Grace Zabriskie (The Grudge), Tyler Young (Eyewitness), Keenan Tracey (Bates Motel), Samantha Logan (The Fosters), Priscilla Quintana (Stranded), Madelaine Petsch (Riverdale) and Javier Botet (Mama, It).

Much like last year's Lights Out, Polaroid is also based on a short that was adapted into a feature.

It's no surprise that Polaroid comes from a producer of The Ring, as that film was intrinsically tied to analog media, both with powerful psychotic images being burned onto a VHS tape and cursed individuals' faces appearing distorted in every image taken of them.

Another strength of Polaroid's trailer is it answers many audiences' questions before they've even seen the film, which is why the characters don't attempt to destroy the camera or the photos that are tied to their demise.
