Ever believe in the curse of the pharaohs? The one where anyone who bothers to disturb a pharaoh's tomb will encounter a horrific death? "The Pyramid," from Warner Bros., tackles that question as a team of U.S. archaeologists unearths an ancient pyramid buried deep beneath the Egyptian desert. As they search the pyramid's depths, they become hopelessly lost in its dark and endless catacombs. Searching for a way out, they become desperate to seek daylight again. They come to realize they aren't just trapped, they are being hunted. "The Pyramid" is being produced by Alexandre Aja and directed by Gregory Levasseur (known for their thrilling works in "The Hills Have Eyes"). The movie stars Ashley Hinshaw, Denis O'Hare and James Buckley.
Alexandre Aja shared in this year’s Comic Con that the movie is too intense such that they preferred to retain the movie’s effective scares. “During prep on “Horns” I was going to Morocco to help Greg. The Pyramid was was too intense and we didn’t want to change the movie. The movie’s really cool. The story is based on true fact. American archeologists use a satellite to X-ray the Egyptian desert. In the film, they find an Egyptian pyramid, bigger than any one we know, buried in the sand and they find a way to get in. The Egyptian authority asks them to leave and they have 24 hours to go see what’s inside and they shouldn’t do that. It’s an adventure type movie, but pretty intense. This is The Descent with an Indiana Jones vibe,” Aja said.
Looks intense! "The Pyramid" opens December 10 in cinemas nationwide from 20th Century Fox to be distributed by Warner Bros.
