Distributor A24, which has given us such memorably horrific tales as THE WITCH and HEREDITARY, now explores the lighter side of the genre with SLICE. Jump past the jump to check out the new trailer (with a bit of NSFW language) and poster.

Coming later this year (no date announced as of now), SLICE stars Chance Bennett (a.k.a. Chance the Rapper), Zazie Beetz, Chris Parnell, Paul Scheer, Rae Gray, Marilyn Dodds Frank, Katherine Cunningham, Will Brill, Y’Lan Noel and Hannibal Buress, and was written and directed by Austin Vesely. The synopsis: In a spooky small town, when a slew of pizza delivery boys are slain on the job, two daring survivors [Bennett and Beetz] set out to catch the culprits behind the cryptic crime spree.”
