This has absolutely sweet fuck all to do with movies, but it is right up our alley here in The Basement. And seriously, who doesn't want to watch people get freaked out by a ghost in an elevator. Or at least get freaked out by what they THINK is a ghost in an elevator. The video comes by way of the Brazilian variety show Programa Silvio Santos and starts with a person walking into an elevator. Suddenly the elevator stops, the lights go off and, without the passenger knowing, a girl looking like the creepy chick from The Ring crawls in via a side panel. When the lights come back on, either she screams or the passenger screams, and a few emotional scars are created. Gotta admit, I laughed a lot. Totally makes sense that this thing is going viral. We'll be back with some movie news shortly.

I'm going to share a little something about myself here and admit to being claustrophobic. Small spaces? Hate them. Elevators? Thanks, but no. I will walk 35 flights of stairs before riding in one.  No bullshit. My fear of elevators hasn't deterred me from watching the elevator-themed movie Devil. I've avoided it because of the whole M. Night Shyamalan thing. That and why would the devil hang out in an elevator anyway? But being trapped in an elevator with a bomb? Yeah, I get that. Which is why the plot for Stig Svendsen's thriller Elevator has me sold. The independent flick features nine partygoers trapped 50 floors above Manhattan with said bomb. Not my idea of a good time, but the trailer below does show promise. Mind you, that's what trailers are supposed to do. The film is due out later this year. Check out the official website to learn more and, as always, we'll keep you posted. By the way, I have no idea what's wrong with the woman in the pic...
