Gravatis Ventures just delivered an exclusive clip to HorrorBuzz from the upcoming horror documentary, The Blackout Experiments. Directed by Rich Fox, the film follows the journey of four fans of the notorious immersive theatre experience Blackout Haunted House and examines their obsession and personal journeys in connection with the show.  The Blackout Experiments enjoyed a wildly successful premiere at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year and was quickly snapped up by Gravatis for release and distribution.

Staring Russell Eaton, Allison Fogarty, Bob Glouberman, and Abel Horwitz, fans of Blackout Haunted House, as they experience what the creators of the show have devised for them. Blurring the lines of reality and fiction, the movie attempts to examine the obsession the four haunt fans have with the mysterious, seemingly unhinged and dangerous elements that await them in the secretive venue. What drives these fans to confront their fears? Why do they wish to confront their boundaries and break past them?

SYNOPSIS: The most extreme immersive horror experience in America is called Blackout. Not for the faint of heart, it is a terrifying, psycho-sexual thrill-ride designed to play on our deepest psychological fears. Rich Fox’s innovative horror documentary follows a group of friends whose experience with Blackout becomes deeply personal, developing into an obsession that hijacks their lives and blurs the line between reality and paranoid fantasy. Revealing an underbelly of private rituals and personal nightmares with shocking footage that is 100% real, THE BLACKOUT EXPERIMENTS is the story of our collective obsession with the darkness inside us.

The Blackout Experiments is COMING JULY 22 IN SELECT THEATERS AND ON DEMAND.
You can preorder the movie here.
