Elijah Wood Gets Cooties in New Image
We’re just over four months away from the release of Cooties (review), which played this past weekend at the Stanley Film Festival. The horror-comedy looks to be a genre highlight of the year, and on tap today is a brand new image to whet your appetite. For now, it’ll have to do. So enjoy!
From the twisted minds of Leigh Whannell (co-creator of Saw and Insidious) and Ian Brennan (co-creator of “Glee”), Cooties is a horror comedy with unexpected laughs and unapologetic thrills. Cooties will be one of the debut releases of the newly-launched Lionsgate Premiere label, which will release the film on September 18th in select theaters and On Demand.
