Elevator Game is the new film by Rebekah McKendry, a director who caught my attention with All the Creatures Were Stirring and impressed me with Glorious. On the other hand, she also has a writing credit on the dismal Bring It On: Cheer or Die. So I was a little apprehensive when she did another teen-themed film that not only shared a lot of that film’s cast but was based on an urban legend that’s about ten years past its expiration date.
However, it was an enjoyably creepy legend. I even got talked into playing it walking back to my hotel after several films and several beers at Sfff one year. Of course, nothing happened, but it was unnerving when the doors opened and I...

"The entire game is real!" "When we played the game, we broke a rule." And now you're screwed! Shudder has unveiled an official trailer for a horror movie called Elevator Game, based on the eponymous online phenomenon. Who's in the mood for a very scary horror about elevators demons? The film will be streaming on Shudder on September 15th. This supernatural horror film is about a ritual conducted in an elevator, in which players attempt to travel to another dimension using a set of rules that can be found online. To play, you must ride the elevator in a specific sequence, invoking a supernatural creature called "The 5th Floor Woman". But they break a rule - so she starts coming after them. This stars Gino Anania, Verity Marks, Alec Carlos, Madison MacIsaac, Liam Stewart-Kanigan, Nazariy Demkowicz, and Megan Best. This actually does look like it will have some seriously scary moments.

Last year, director Rebekah McKendry impressed our reviewer Tyler Nichols with the horror film Glorious, which took place in a rest stop bathroom. (You can read Tyler’s 8/10 review at This Link.) Now McKendry has made another “supernatural happenings in a confined location” horror film called Elevator Game, and it’s going to be released through the Shudder streaming service very soon… just not as soon as we had previously heard. Elevator Game was once set to start streaming on August 11th, but its release date has since shifted back to September 15th. And with that date just over a month away, a trailer has arrived online. You can check it out in the embed above.
Elevator Game will be available for Shudder subscribers in the US, the UK, Ireland, Australia, and New Zealand. It will also stream on AMC+ in some areas.
Michael Goi (Megan Is Missing) was originally attached to direct the film,...
