Four Boxes

Four Boxes looks like an interesting indie film. It brings comparisons to Blair Witch, which is a comparison I don’t think we’ll see ending anytime soon. Whenever a new indie film within the horror/thriller genre is trying to get bigger exposure, it seems that the Blair Witch comparison is always brought up, (i.e. Paranormal Activity).

However, they’ve gone a few steps further still, claiming on their website that this flick is the ‘Rear Window for the internet’. All I can say is that if you have the balls to claim your movie is like ‘Rear Window for the internet’…you better be able to back it up!

Even better, we see another comparison on their site where they call it “Sex, Lies and Videotape meets Rear Window”. Hmmm…yes, I am extremely skeptical about this. Sex, Lies…and Rear Window are two movies I hold in high regard, and I guess that’s their point in comparing them, but…well, I’m skeptical. Regardless, I have to admit that I am very intrigued by this film and am looking forward to seeing it when it drops on DVD or if I get lucky enough to get it playing somewhere nearby.

Four Boxes is going to be screening at SXSW this year, so if anyone sees it, give me a shout and let me know what you thought. Me, I’ll have to wait…

The above trailer is kind of weak, so I suggest you click THIS LINK to see a more robust trailer. Note that it will open in Windows Media Player. Also, check out THE WEBSITE, (not much information on there, but hopefully they’ll be updating with new content once SXSW begins).

Well I don’t really see the Blair Witch in that preview but I do think it has sparked my interest. Now if I could only get the horror film in my head out on paper, then we would be able to see a real movie. LOL
Can’t wait to see this on dvd. Viewing Screen Party anyone?

I should have specified that I meant comparison from the marketing dept., not actual movie plot.
