Ectoplasm Release in 'Haunting in Connecticut' One Sheet!

This afternoon we got our hands on an exclusive look at the official one sheet for Lionsgate's forthcoming The Haunting in Connecticut, which now hits theaters March 27th. What you'll see beyond the break is a guaranteed addition (already) to my best posters of 2009 list and features one of the characters in the film releasing "ectoplasm" (it's seriously cool), a sort of visual physical substance (or yummy goo) that supposedly manifests as a result of "spiritual energy" or "psychic phenomenon". This is an impressive launch to their campaign to go along with the insanely creepy trailer that's been available for a few months now.

For better clarity on what's going on in this image, watch the video below where you can look at "supposed" photos of ectoplasm fro T.G. Hamilton.

Wow. Pictures of people with gloves and socks hanging out of their mouths. Super amazing. Haunting in Conn. looks good though

The label "True Events" seems to be bandied about quite a lot these days. Seems like it's become a pretty accurate epitaph, woefully wailing the warning that "this film does not stand on it's own merit. If it's a well constructed horror film I'll go see it, but it's these painfully discernible gimmicks that give the genre a bad name. I'm not singling out this movie specifically, it's just that everyone knows how spurious these 'true event' cases really are, there is no need for the studio to undermine our intelligence like we are an audience of trailer park true believers, superstitiously fainting over blurry photos of hazy reflections and stroking our manic erections to the latest "True Events" on Paranormal State, trying to conjure up our own bona fide ecto-batter.

I will admit that I am a bigger fan of the other poster than I am of this poster. I'm not saying that it isn't a bad poster, nor am I saying it's a good poster. I think if they wanted to make it a really creepy poster, than maybe have the plasm coming out of the guys moth looking like tortured humans or grotesque demons. Wow I am really that disturbef aren't I lol.

Horrible poster. Looks like the kid is barfing up Kane from POLTERGEIST II. Totally ruins the tone the trailer set up. Hope this film doesn't suck.

1) I've seen the discovery channel "A Haunting: In Connecticut" documentary and I can already say that this movie is going to be completely different with a couple of similarities to the real story. A la "The Exorcism of Emily Rose" (great movie btw). 2) Speaking of "Emily Rose" anyone notice the music at the beginning of the "Connecticut" trailer?
