Trim Season, the upcoming horror high from director Ariel Vida, hits theaters and on demand on June 7, and today brings a brand new redband trailer to get you in the mood for a nightmare blunt rotation.
Written by David Blair and Sean E. DeMott, and produced by Aaron B. Koontz’s Paper Street Pictures (Scare Package, Old Man, The Requin), Trim Season‘s plot synopsis reads as follows:
Jobless and searching for purpose, Emma and a group of young people from Los Angeles drive up the coast to make quick cash trimming marijuana on a secluded farm in Northern California. Cut off from the rest of the world, they soon realize that Mona – the seemingly amiable owner of the estate – is harboring secrets darker than any of them could imagine. It becomes a race against time for Emma and her friends to escape the dense woods with their lives.
The stoner scarefest stars Jane Badler (Ricky Stanicky) Bethlehem Million (Sick), Alex Essoe (Midnight Mass), Bex Taylor-Klaus (Scream, The Killing), and Ally Ioannides (V/H/S/99). Juliette Kenn De Balinthazy, Ryan Donowho, Cory Hart, Marc Senter and Paris Warner also star. Badler for MeJane Productions, Execution Style’s Sean E. DeMott and Hlbrk Ent’s Paul Holbrook produced alongside Paper Street.
Director Vida – who has worked as production designer on a number of films including She Dies Tomorrow and Benson and Moorhead’s The Endless –wrote the screenplay with David Blair, based on a story by Megan Sutherland, Cullen Poythress and DeMott. In a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, she teased a little more of what we can expect from the THC terror:
Trim Season explores themes of power and agency, friendship and loss, all through a stylized lens brought to life by an amazing cast and crew that I couldn’t be more proud of and grateful for.
