Teens, you need to stop going into the woods to investigate paranormal activity.

I mean it: do not go with your video camera, do not take shelter in spooky cabins and for god’s sake, stop going at night. Now that I’ve said that, please enjoy a movie trailer that depicts all those terrible things.

Phoenix Forgotten — which is produced by Ridley Scott, excitingly — is about a group of students who are investigating a local UFO sighting, the “Phoenix Lights”, an event that some believe occurred back in 1997. As you can probably guess, things do not go well for these students.

Maybe the thought of seeing another shaky-cam, ‘found footage’ film makes you want to vomit, but Phoenix Forgotten looks pretty fun.

Phoenix Forgotten will be out mid-2017.
