Now Online: First Full Trailer for “In A Violent Nature” (via FearHQ.com) Unveils a Fresh Perspective on the Slasher Genre
Writer/director Chris Nash’s latest horror venture, “In A Violent Nature,” takes center stage with its newly released full trailer. Promising an intense ride through the depths of terror, the film thrusts viewers into the heart-pounding chaos of an unstoppable masked maniac on a ruthless spree of murder amidst an idyllic, remote backdrop.
While initial impressions might draw comparisons to classic horror tropes, particularly the iconic Friday the 13th franchise, Nash’s film offers a compelling twist. By shifting the narrative lens to the perspective of the killer, “In A Violent Nature” injects new life into the slasher genre.
The teaser tantalizes with glimpses of Johnny, a character evoking echoes of Friday’s infamous Jason Voorhees, emerging from his grave with a singular mission: reclaiming a locket taken by unsuspecting vacationers. As the trailer unfolds, audiences are treated to chilling sequences of the undead monster methodically dispatching his victims, all while casually strolling through the serene woods.
Prepare for a journey into darkness as “In A Violent Nature” promises to deliver a fresh and exhilarating take on horror’s most enduring themes.
“One of the biggest challenges was trying to figure out how much information is necessary to tell the story,” Nash explains to EW. “Fortunately, the slasher genre has a lot of recognizable tropes that I could rely on filling in the blanks that we couldn’t touch on without straying too far from our stylistic conceit. I owe an unfathomable debt to all the Friday the 13ths, The Burning, My Bloody Valentine — really the entire slasher genre; they laid the foundation for our film.”
“The aim was to have Johnny imbued with elements that would make him feel iconic, mythic, and familiar, as a way to tap into the feeling I got while watching slasher films as a kid,” he added.
