Catch the New ‘Cooties’ Trailer with Elijah Wood

Lionsgate Premiere’s wild new trailer for Cooties finds Elijah Wood, Alison Pill, and Rainn Wilson having to fight off zombie kids using whatever fighting limited skills they have and only the makeshift weapons they can find at an elementary school. Directed by Jonathan Milott and Cary Murnion and written by Leigh Whannell (Saw, Insidious) and Ian Brennan, Cooties also features Whannell, Jack McBrayer, Nasim Pedrad, Ian Brennan and Jorgé Garcia.

The horror-comedy will open in theaters and on VOD on September 18, 2015.

The Plot: When a cafeteria food virus turns elementary school children into killer zombies, a group of misfit teachers must band together to escape the playground carnage. The film stars Elijah Wood, Rainn Wilson, and Alison Pill as teachers who fight to survive the mayhem while hilariously bickering in an uncomfortable love triangle on the worst Monday of their lives.
