DEMONIC, the upcoming sci-fi/horror film from Neill (District 9) Blomkamp, not only wants to scare the pants off us but spotlight a new cinematic technology in doing so. “The film uses a patent-pending new method of using volumetric capture (a three-dimensional video technology that turns actors into geometric objects.). The amount of volumetric capture in DEMONIC is the most ever seen in a feature film.” What does this mean exactly, we’re not entirely certain just yet; however, the new trailer does feature a few glimpses at these “geometric objects”… and a new movie-going “possession”… woot! Check out the trailer from IFC MIDNIGHT below!
