“You can’t run a conference facility without Wi-Fi.” Netflix has revealed an official trailer for a Swedish slasher horror comedy called The Conference, made by Swedish filmmaker Patrik Eklund. It’s debuting for streaming worldwide starting in October, which is the best time to launch a film like this, of course. What begins as team-building fun, descends into a nightmare as a mysterious masked killer begins stalking and picking off the participants one by one. A conference for municipal employees turns into a nightmare when accusations of corruption begin to circulate, and a strange figure starts murdering the attendees one-by-one. The Conference is a slasher comedy that is based on Mats Strandbergs book by the same name. Starring Eva Melander, Katia Winter, Adam Lundgren, Lola Zackow, and Christoffer Nordenrot. Looks like another fun spin on slashers, with most of the attendees being municipal schmucks it seems. Check this out.

Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Patrik Eklund’s The Conference, from Netflix’s YouTube:
