‘Skillhouse’ Trailer – Trapped Influencers Are Dying for Attention

The Skillhouse looks like Saw II for the influencer generation — which makes sense, since writer-director Josh Stolberg co-wrote Jigsaw, Spiral, and Saw X.

Skillhouse goes viral in theaters July 11 from Fathom Entertainment. You can watch the first nine minutes now on GenTV.

Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson stars alongside social media sensations Bryce Hall and Hannah Stocking. Neal McDonough (Captain America: The First Avenger), McCarrie McCausland (“Army Wives”), and combat sports fighter Paige VanZant round out the cast.

Shot in the legendary Sway House where many internet personalities rose to fame, the film follows ten influencers who are lured into a sinister content house and forced to compete in lethal social media challenges – because in Skillhouse, clout isn’t just currency; it’s survival.

“Skillhouse has been a revolutionary film project from the outset – one that is thrilling and compelling for anyone on social media and horror fans of all ages,” said GenTV founder and producer Ryan Kavanaugh (Zombieland, Limitless). “The project is right for the times and breaks barriers by leveraging the power and appeal of influencers and immerses them into the story.”

“Social media permeates our society today, and influencers have changed the dynamics of how many choose the brands they purchase and the content they consume,” added Fathom CEO Ray Nutt. “The brilliant Skillhouse concept is ripe for exploration on-screen and is a success story in leveraging innovative ways to reach audiences and engage with them.”
