Last night 2Snaps.tv and HYB movie expert Jerry Dennis told me The Box is the horror movie to look forward too in 2009. After watching the trailer I’m not sure if it is really a horror movie or not, but it does look like a film horror fans will not want to miss. Directed by Richard Kelly who brought us Donnie Darko and Southland Tales, The Box will be in theaters October 30, 2009.

“Norma and Arthur Lewis are a suburban couple with a young child who receive an anonymous gift bearing fatal and irrevocable consequences. A simple wooden box, it promises to deliver its owner $1 million with the press of a button. However, pressing this button will simultaneously cause the death of another human being somewhere in the world…someone they don’t know. With just 24 hours to have the box in their possession, Norma and Arthur find themselves in the crosshairs of a startling moral dilemma and face the true nature of their humanity.”

UPDATE: It seems The Box was bumped to November 6th.
