The much-anticipated Jane Schoenbrun's movie We're All Going To The World's Fair has gotten a spooky trailer, an animated poster, and... finally, an official release date. You'll be able to catch the movie on the 15th of April at the BAM Festival, in New York. Shortly after, on the 22nd of April, We're All Going To The World's Fair will receive a nationwide expansion and digital release.
The movie premiered at Sundance 2021 and earned appraisal from magazines such as IndieWire, Paste Magazine, and The Hollywood Reporter. The journalists highlighted the innovative commentary on the Digital Era and Creepypasta online communities while maintaining a very eerie atmosphere the whole way through. The new trailer for We're All Going To The World's Fair confirms this.
The synopsis for We're All Going To The World's Fair goes as follows: "Alone in her attic bedroom, teenager Casey becomes immersed in an online role-playing horror game, wherein she begins to document the changes that may or may not be happening to her."
About the movie, Jane Schoenbrun revealed to No Film School:
[About the communal factor in Creeypastas] "This for me was fascinating as a creative kid who grew up on the internet who was certainly looking for a space where I could explore my identity outside of the prison of body that I didn’t feel comfortable in. That’s what really drew me to the subject matter, as for whether film itself is creepypasta or not—while I’m certainly playing on creepypasta iconography and while the film is indebted to the genre—it’s still just a film at the end of the day."
We will have to wait for three more months to watch the movie, but the marketing campaign has been nothing short of engaging, with the dynamics between multimedia elements, and the mysterious tone well preserved.
