A summer camp, some fresh-faced counsellors – I think we can see where this one is going, right?

Well, actually not – as rather than any masked madman stalking victims, the threat this time around turns out to be something very different.

Brought to the screen courtesy of [REC] producer Alberto Marini, here’s the synopsis:

Looking for fun experiences as counsellors at a European sumer camp for children, four Americans never suspect their first experience may be their last.

For the rapid-fire spread of an extreme rage-inducing infection plunges the group into a dark vortex of horror and madness catapulting them into a race against time – and each other – to find the source of the mystery contagion to make it out alive.

The likes of Maiara Walsh, Diego Boneta and Jocelyn Donahue people the cast, and Marini has certainly shown the ability to oversee some impressive visual stuff in the past (he also produced the ace Spanish shocker Sleep Tight),

Summer Camp gets its world premiere in London on Sunday, August 30.

Here’s a trailer:
