Screen Gems via Sony Pictures Entertainment has released the official trailer for the horror short film, BLINK, ahead of its premiere on March 13, 2022, at SXSW in the Midnight Shorts Program. Check out the trailer below and let us know what you think.

After being violently pushed from a window, Mary wakes up in the hospital, almost completely paralyzed. Trapped inside the prison of her own body, Mary’s only way to communicate is by blinking her eyes. She tries to warn the nurse that a sinister, inhuman force is trying to kill her. But when strange things begin happening around her, she realizes it may be too late to stop it.

BLINK stars Alicia Coppola, Scot Nery, and Sophie Thatcher. It is directed by Spenser Cohen. The screenplay is by Cohen and Anna Halberg. It is produced by Halberg and Scott Glassgold.

BLINK is the first short film to come out of Screen Gems (Sony Pictures’ genre label) and Ground Control’s horror film lab “Scream Gems.” “Scream Gems” focuses on the development and production of horror genre proof-of-concepts and aims to collaborate with up-and-coming filmmakers to produce horror shorts with the primary goal of developing new, original content into feature films.

BLINK will be available for viewing on March 14, 2022, on Sony Pictures Entertainment’s YouTube Channel.
