Ahead of its premiere on Shudder this October, a new trailer has been released for writer-director Josh Ruben’s horror comedy Scare Me which stars Ruben and Aya Cash as two strangers who challenge each other to tell scary stories during a power outage in a cabin in the woods; watch the trailer here…
Fred (Josh Ruben, CollegeHumor), a frustrated copywriter, checks into a winter cabin to start his first novel. While jogging in the nearby woods, he meets Fanny (Aya Cash, “You’re The Worst” “The Boys”), a successful and smug young horror author who fuels his insecurities. During a power outage, Fanny challenges Fred to tell a scary story. As a storm sets in, they pass the time spinning spooky tales fueled by the tensions between them, and Fred is forced to confront his ultimate fear: Fanny is the better storyteller. The stakes are raised when they’re visited by a horror fan (Chris Redd, “Saturday Night Live”) who delivers levity (and a pizza) to the proceedings.
Scare Me arrives on Shudder on October 1st.
