A first official full-length movie trailer has been released online for Primate, the upcoming horror thriller movie directed by Johannes Roberts and starring Johnny Sequoyah, Jessica Alexander, Troy Kotsur, Victoria Wyant, Gia Hunter, Benjamin Cheng, Charlie Mann, and Tienne Simon:

PRIMATE

They thought he was family.

Plot synopsis:
“When she returns home from college, Lucy (Johnny Sequoyah) reunites with her family and reconnects with their pet: a chimpanzee named Ben. During a party, the primate contracts rabies and becomes very aggressive. Lucy & her friends will have to barricade themselves in the pool, devising different strategies in order to survive. A tropical vacation that will end up turning into a terrifying primitive story of horror and survival.”

Let’s hope this film will remind people that apes and monkeys should not be kept as pets! Not only because they’re smart but also because they’re freaking strong!

Anyway, Ben makes for a hell of killer chimp, don’t mess with him!
