Thomas Ligotti's Gas Station Carnivals (R)

PARAMOUNT PICTURES ANNOUNCES ADAPTATION OF THOMAS LIGOTTI'S “GAS STATION CARNIVALS” STARRING STEVE BUSCEMI AND JAMES SPADER

“The lights flicker. The pumps whisper. And somewhere behind the plywood walls... The Showman waits.”

LOS ANGELES, CA — Paramount Pictures is proud to unveil the first look at its newest descent into psychological horror with the highly anticipated film adaptation of Thomas Ligotti’s cult classic Gas Station Carnivals. A film that promises to blur the lines between dilapidated Americana and cosmic dread, Gas Station Carnivals is described as “haunting,” “claustrophobically intimate,” and “terminally doomed.”

“GAS STATION CARNIVALS” premieres this fall in select theaters and midnight circuits. Dare to face The Showman—or don’t. He’s already seen you.
