Watch The Trailer For Barry Levinson’s ‘The Bay’
There’s definitely no shortage of found-footage films and I can’t say that I am a fan of a majority of them myself. Minus films such as Cloverfield, Quarantine and Chronicle I find the genre to be “eh” at best. But this one actually looks good and with a name like Barry Levinson (Sleepers and Rain Man) directing, they’ve got my interest. This film is produced by the Paranormal Activity team of Jason Blum, Oren Peli and Steven Schneider, and unlike those films looks really solid. Possibly the most terrifying thing about this movie is the fact that is based on real-life tongue-eating parasites. My skin is currently crawling at the moment.
The quaint seaside town of Chesapeake Bay thrives on water; it is the lifeblood of the community. When two biological researchers from France find a staggering level of toxicity in the water, they attempt to alert the mayor, but he refuses to create a panic in the docile town. As a result, a deadly plague is unleashed, turning the people of Chesapeake Bay into hosts for a mutant breed of parasites that take control of their minds, and eventually their bodies. A brutal and harrowing creature feature for the 21st century, THE BAY chronicles the descent of a small town into absolute terror.
The Bay hits theaters November 2nd.
