The Stormhouse Teaser Trailer has premiered. Dan Turner‘s Stormhouse (2011) stars Katherine Flynn, Grahame Fox, Andrew Hall, Martin Delaney, and Frankie Fitzgerald. Stormhouse‘s plot synopsis: “In 2002, eight months before the invasion of Iraq, the Military captured and imprisoned a supernatural entity at Stormhouse, a secret underground base. This film documents the final four days of that experiment. ‘Ghost whisperer’ Hayley Sands is brought to Stormhouse by the Government to make contact with the captured entity. But her arrival triggers a series of events which lead to the entity’s escape, plunging the base into a horrific nightmare.”

This teaser trailer is good, especially towards the end. These film reminds me of Event Horizon and the video game Dead Space. Stormhouse is ”currently in post-production and will be distributed in the UK by Av Pictures.” Stormhouse also stars Grant Masters, James Capel, Munir Khairdin, and Grahame Fox. Watch the Stormhouse...
