Many of us may have forgotten about the little games we used to play as kids that would make us scared by our computer screens. We can now experience that rush on the big screen.
Five Nights at Freddy’s will hit the theater on October 27. The terror-filled game-to-movie adaptation has gamers and horror fans alike counting down the days until the FNaF movie release, eager to see their favorite game come to life on the big screen.
Danna Garcia Grade 11 said,” I remember as a little girl, I would always play Five Nights at Freddy, every time I would get back to school. For me it was the best part of my day”.
What Is ‘Five Nights at Freddy’s’ About? It centers on protagonist Mike Schmidt, a young man who takes on the role of the nighttime security guard at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, a family entertainment center consisting of a pizzeria and an indoor amusement park. As Mike settles into his new job, he soon makes a troubling discovery: the creepy animatronic mascots used to entertain families during daylight hours are more than just your standard robot.
They are alive, filled with vengeance, and will kill anyone still in the building after midnight. Of course, none of this bodes well for night-shift guard Mike, who must use the limited resources around him to defend himself from the menacing bots and survive the long, torturous hours between 12 AM to 6 AM.
Emma Tammi, the imaginative director behind the motion picture adaptation of the celebrated horror game franchise by Scott Cawthon, has spent around 25 million USD on the project., as well as hiring many actors to play the beloved characters in the game.
Hiam Farraj, Grade 12, said ” When I first heard that they were going to make a live-action version of my favorite video game I couldn’t believe it. They were making a movie about one of my childhood games.”
Josh Hutcherson, who is well known for his role as Peeta Mellark in the Hunger Games Trilogy, will play the main character Mike Schmidt, and Matthew Lillard, a beloved 90s Teenage heartthrob best known for being Stu Macher in the Horror classic Scream and the Scooby- Doo movies as Shaggy as William Afton, the franchise’s main villain, along with Mary Stuart Masterson and Piper Rubio who joined the cast as Mike’s aunt Jane, and Mike’s younger sister Abby, and Kevin Foster as Freddy Fazbear.
The movie will be a trip down memory lane for many and a new memory for others, which is what the director hopes for, it is a movie to release your inner Child.
