Found footage Shocker "Dwellers" to kick off this Saturday

This particular movie could be worth a look at because it's told in a found footage format, something that the "Blair Witch Project" introduced for the first time in 1999.  

Let's see if "Dwellers", produced by Ellefson Films (the new film company of Megadeth bassist David Ellefson) can bring something new into the horror genre. 

A sign reveals that something has happend to these people...
Dwellers has been described as being, "C.H.U.D. if it were shot like The Blair Witch Project." The film stars: Drew Fortier, James L. Edwards (Her Name Was Christa), Douglas Esper (The Nutshell) and Omar Baig (Let's Make a Movie). 

Also featuring cameos from the film's producer, David Ellefson, as well as former Mushroomhead vocalist, Jeff Hatrix. It has been written and directed by Drew Fortier. 
 
The film's plot is as follows:  
While shooting a documentary on the suspicious disappearances within the homeless community, a filmmaker and his crew go missing while uncovering a terrifying and vicious secret below the city's surface.
 

The first screening has been announced for this coming Saturday, March 20th 2021 as a part of the HorrorHound Film Festival's Midnight Madness Feature and will hold a special virtual Q&A after the screening that will feature cast members from _Dwellers_.Tickets go just for 10 Dollars for the whole event with plenty more of content.

Later in the year on October 12, 2021, a Blu-ray/DVD/Digital release will see the light of day. The physical release is planned to be packed with bonus features. More details to be released in the coming months along with pre-order information.
