Exclusive trailer for “REVENGE OF THE BOOGEYMAN” finds a new place to haunt

The sequel to BEWARE THE BOOGEYMAN will be unleashed next month.

Breaking Glass Pictures brings REVENGE OF THE BOOGEYMAN to digital platforms March 18. As opposed to the anthology structure of its predecessor, the new film is a single story directed by Erik Skybak from a script he wrote with producers Calvin McCarthy and Chynna Rae Shurts. The trio also co-star in the movie along with Tim Coyle, Jax Kellington, Sam Bangs, Naomi Mechem-Miller, Jon Salimes and Jason Brooks in the title role. The synopsis: “A group of friends retreat to a secluded cabin in the woods, hoping to help one of their own overcome a battle with substance addiction. But their plans take a dark turn as strange, unsettling events unfold. As the eerie occurrences intensify, they begin to fear that the local legend of the Ridgefield Boogeyman might be more than just a story.”
