Red Band Trailer Teases The Horrors Of ‘Isolation’

Eleven filmmakers have joined forces for Isolation. The new Red Band trailer has just arrived giving us a glimpse of the unnerving film comprised of nine tales of survival filmed during lockdown. As a narrative framework, Director and Producer, Nathan Crooker created a fictional world many months into the future that is based around the current global pandemic. All eleven filmmakers used the same unifying framework in creating their stories. The filmmakers were tasked with how to stay creative using only what was available to them at the time. They were not allowed to use Zoom or any other video conferencing services and were only allowed to use the equipment and resources they had with them when they entered into lockdown, including cast and crew, adhering to their respective COVID-19 protocols.

Amazing Father Daughter Duo Recreate Iconic Movie Scenes While In Quarantine

One good thing has come out of people being stuck in isolation and quarantine, creative, funny videos.

The original scene can be seen playing in the lower right corner for comparison. And let’s be honest, they absolutely nailed it! The video is one of many posted by the duo. Other recreations include the Time Warp scene from Rocky Horror Picture Show.
