Randall Cole’s 388 Arlette Avenue produced horror flick starring Nick Stahl, Mia Kirshner and Devon Sawa played at TIFF back in September had it’s first trailer debuted yesterday. Check it:

Wetpaint has posted a few pictures of Mia with her co-star Stephen Moyer on set in Toronto. It’s a pity her pictures aren’t focusing on her, but let’s hope better pictures surfaces soon. A poster was also released, you can find it in our gallery.

On Set

Get excited, kids. The cast for Darren Lynn Bousman’s latest film based upon the legend of the New Jersey Devil, The Barrens, is shaping up quite nicely! Read on for details.

According to Bloody Disgusting Mia Kirshner, Erik Knudsen (Scream 4, Saw II), and J Larose (pictured right; Insidious, Saw III) have all signed on to join Stephen Moyer (“True Blood,” The Caller) in the flick.

Filming begins next Monday in Toronto. View the Synopsis after the cut

Synopsis
Despite their reluctance, Richard Marlow (Moyer) takes his wife, Cynthia (Kirshner); their young son, Danny; and his teenage daughter, Sadie, to the Pine Barrens for a long weekend of camping and family bonding. As they arrive at the Wharton State Forest, a mutilated deer runs out into the road, nearly colliding with the Marlows’ car. Later that evening another bloodied animal falls from a tree. Bad turns to worse when, in the middle of the night, a college boy camping nearby disappears into the woods. Nevertheless, Richard presses the family to hike farther into the forest to the spot where he used to camp with his father. He is feverish, and a past wound on his arm appears badly infected, but when it begins to rain, there is no turning back. Richard’s sickness soon becomes debilitating; his headaches turn to hallucinations. What’s worse, he believes there is something stalking them…something with yellow eyes, pointed horns, and the wings of a bat – THE JERSEY DEVIL. The disfigured bodies of the missing camper and another college boy soon turn up. The Marlows must fight for their lives as the horrifying answer reveals itself in a shocking and tragic conclusion.

Well, apparently none of the main actors for 388 Arletta Avenue attended this year’s Toronto Festival. Nick Stahl has said a while ago that he won’t be attending due family issues. And no word at all was said at Devon Sawa or Mia’s Twitter. Sadly, I was hoping for some new Mia appearance.

But the first reviews has started to pop:

388 Arletta Avenue also takes some fairly illogical twists and turns, and James, the film’s main protagonist, makes some pretty insipid decisions merely to move the film forward, which is disappointing considering the film had the potential of being far more witty than the more recent handheld horror offerings as of late.

Despite the film’s transparent shortcomings, 388 Arletta Avenue is still a solid Canadian horror indie that has a simple premise that delivers the goods. The film’s flaws will bother any true horror fan; however, the appropriately harrowing denouement will not disappoint even the most jaded of viewers. [Read More]

The overhall on Twitter is also good. Can’t wait to see it!
