Watch New Trailers for 'The Belko Experiment,' 'Sleight' and 'The Shac…

Three new trailers arrived at our doorstep today, and each has an enigmatic quality to its plot. Watch the new spots for The Belko ExperimentSleight and The Shack below.  

The Belko Experiment 

With a premise reminiscent of many psychological experiment-based plots, including The Purge and Battle Royale, this thriller from the Blumhouse brand looks messed up, especially in the following blood-soaked Red Band trailer. Written and produced by Guardians of the Galaxy helmer James Gunn and directed by Wolf Creek‘s Greg McLean, the movie pits employee against employee in a locked-down office building where a voice orders them to murder so many people or a larger amount of people will die. Gunn regular Michael Rooker is joined by John Gallagher, Jr., Tony Goldwyn, Adria Arjona, Melonie Diaz and Silicon Valley‘s Josh Brener. Look for the movie in theaters on March 17, 2017.

Sleight 

Also a Blumhouse release, this one in cooperation with WWE FIlms, Sleight is of course about a very gifted magician. The teaser below makes the character (The Maze Runner‘s Jacob Latimore) seem like a superhero with actual magic powers, but maybe that’s not the case if the synopsis is to be believed. Either way, our own Erik Davis saw it at Sundance back in January and that quote in the spot comparing this to Chronicle and Iron Man is his (he also includes Menace II Society in his review). Sleight is the feature directorial debut of Bad Robot veteran J.D. Dillard (he last worked on Star Wars: The Force Awakens), and you can check it out when it opens on April 7, 2017.

The Shack 

Anyone who has seen him in Hacksaw Ridge ought to be open to a new movie starring Sam Worthington. This one is adapted from the bestselling Christian novel by William P. Young about a man who loses his daughter then is invited for a weekend getaway with an African-American woman named Papa (Octavia Spencer), who is actually God. Of course the trailer below isn’t entirely clear on the religious aspects of the movie, which also stars Radha Mitchell as the man’s wife. It does seem like it could be this generation’s What Dreams May Come with its effects-heavy heavenly setting. The Shack is directed by Stuart Hazeldine, who made the thriller Exam, and it arrives in theaters on March 3, 2017.
