The first official one-sheet for Marlon Wayan’s (‘Scary Movie’) latest horror send up ‘A Haunted House’ has landed. The poster is notably familiar to the style of Wayan’s previous parody efforts such as the ‘Scary Movie’ series and uses similar floating heads and practically an identical font. Let’s hope the movie itself can offer at least a little more originality in a somewhat crowded and achingly thinning genre. Wayans stars alongside Essence Atkins (‘Dance Flick’), Cedric the Entertainer, David Koechner (‘Final Destination 5’), Nick Swardson, Dave Sheridan (‘Scary Movie’), Liana Mendoza and Jamie Noel (‘Bikini Spring Break’). Check out the poster below, courtesy of Open Road Films, and make sure you catch it when it hits theatres from 11 January.
“In an outrageous send up of the “Paranormal Activity” movies, The Devil Inside and other “found footage” movies, A Haunted House features young couple Malcolm (Marlon Wayans) and Kisha (Essence Atkins) who have just moved in to their dream house. As they settle in, they quickly find they’re not alone. But it’s not the house that’s haunted, it’s Malcolm’s girlfriend who is possessed by a demon. Malcolm hires everyone from a priest to modern day ghostbusters to rid her of this unwelcome intruder, determined not to let the evil spirit ruin his relationship… or, more importantly, his sex life.”
