Apollo 18 Trailer

Have you ever wondered why our trips to the moon just seemed to suddenly stop? The “found footage” from Apollo 18 finally explains why NASA decided to leave the little hunk of orbiting rock alone.

Following the same formula made popular with The Blair Witch Project and the more recent Paranormal Activity films, Apollo 18 is filmed as a real-life documentary showing the unfortunate circumstances that befell Nate and Ben during their lunar adventure. Or maybe the whole thing actually is real. What the heck do I know about it?

Check out the trailer for all the hammer-swinging action and get a quick peek at something that could be a little face-hugger right out of Alien. Find out the real reason we never went back.

The movie is produced by Timur Bekmambetov (Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, Wanted) and directed by Gonzalo Lopez-Gallego in his English-language directorial debut.
