Now Playing: Countdown - Horror Movie Trailer

Why didn't she read the user agreement? There are plenty of apps on the various mobile stores that do this very thing, except it's a random algorithm and not a real prediction. Interestingly enough, this movie takes that simple premise down a dark path, and that first trailer gives the film a thriller feel while introducing some hideous beast with long, black fingers.

The horror movie stars Elizabeth Lail, Jordan Calloway, Talitha Bateman, and Tichina Arnold, and is directed and written by Justin Dec. This is Dec's first feature-length film.
