With no real surprises to be had with cinema's found footage formula, a gambit of a film being entirely filmed using Snapchat has us intrigued.  

Sickhouse is a horror film from the mind of Hannah Macpherson and is completely comprised of brief Snapchat videos[1]. The story follows a group of friends who go on a trip into the woods to explore the mystery behind the titular building where, we're assuming, isn't the nicest of places.

The film was scripted and shot over five days from 29 April to 3 May, and a trailer is now available to view.

Initially released via actor Andrea Russett's Snapchat account, the footage has since garnered over a million views since itsinduction[2] online. A Director's Cut is now currently being edited with the finished product being billed as a 'made for mobile' film.

The feature-length horror comes from Indigenous Media, a next-gen studio that, in a bid to embrace the changing face of social media, aims to unveil original content across a variety ofplatforms[3].

Co-founder Jake Avnet toldMashable: "We love innovating[5] around story... Snapchat has enormous viewership andengagement[6], and until now no one had really attempted a true long form story on it so we were eager to take on the challenge.[4]

"Younger audiences are not going to the theaters; they're not watching TV. They spend their time online watching YouTube, Snapchat, etc. Since this is where these audiences live, why should we try to force them to go elsewhere to watch a movie or show?"

Sickhouse will be available to watch on Vimeo from 1 June.
