Polaroid (2015) was a 15 minutes horror short film written and director by Norwegian filmmaker Lars Klevberg. The film had some success in genre festivals even winning the Best Horror Short Film at Festival Internacional de cine fantástico de Torremolinos in 2016. Now, the director Lars Klevberg debuts in a feature film with the full-length version of his own short film.
As the official site for the film mentions, “Polaroid (2017) is styled in the vein of The Ring (2002) and Final Destination (2000) and centers on a high school loner, Bird Fitcher, who stumbles upon a vintage Polaroid camera. Bird soon learns that the camera houses a terrible secret: whoever has their picture taken by it meets a tragic and violent end. The girl and her friends must survive one more night as they race to solve the mystery of the haunted Polaroid before it kills them all”.
The full length movie is currently in post-production and is expected to hit theaters in the USA this 27th of August. The film is a Norway-USA production, in English language and starred by Kathryn Prescott, Mitch Pileggi, Grace Zabriskie, Tyler Young, Keenan Tracey, Samantha Logan, Priscilla Quintana, Madelaine Petsch and Javier Botet. So far we have no trailer for the feature film, information about release dates in the rest of the world, or if it will be screened or premiered at any festival. For the moment, here you can find the official poster and the trailer for the short film. That should work. For the moment.
