Belgian director Jonas Govaerts is now well into post production on his debut feature, the horror film Cub, and following on the first stills we shared from the film back in August we are now pleased to premiere the first poster for the film below. The classy, iconic effort is by Justin Erickson of Phantom City Creative and just goes to show once again why so many consider Erickson to be one of the best in the biz these days.
For those attending the sales market in Cannes a new trailer will be available in the offices of international sales agents Kinology. For the rest of us, well, it's on track for an autumn 2014 release.
Here's how Govaerts pitched the film back when they were raising money via a crow funding campaign:
Cub is a horror movie about Sam, a twelve-year-old imaginative boy who goes to camp in the woods with his pack of cub scouts. Together with the other cubs and the leaders of the pack Sam finds himself in a dark wood where a psychopathic poacher and his masked helper live. What the cubs don't know is that the poacher has laid out ingenious, lethal traps all over the forest.
Nicolas Karakatsanis (Bullhead) is handling cinematography. Stef Aerts, Jan Hammenecker, Evelein Bosmans, Titus de Voogt and Maurice Luijten star.
