Elijah Wood to Host Screening of His New Horror Comedy COOTIES at SDCC!

Holy moly, friends and neighbors. Can you believe Comic-Con 2015 is almost upon us? While we get our Conival laser tag gear, hand sanitizer, and schedules ready, we have some fun news to share about the upcoming convention. Our pal Elijah Wood will not only be stopping by the Legendary Conival stage to chat with our own Chris Hardwick about his new film, Cooties, he’s bringing a screening of it to San Diego as well!

Also starring Rainn Wilson, Alison Pill, Jack McBrayer, Nasim Pedrad, and Jorge Garcia, Cooties is a new horror comedy written by Saw and Insidious‘ Leigh Whannel and Glee writer Ian Brennan. Here’s the official (excellent) synopsis:

When a mysterious virus borne from chicken nuggets hits an isolated elementary school transforming the pre-adolescent children into a feral swarm of mindless cannibals, an unlikely hero must lead a motley band of teachers in the fight of their lives against them. Who is this hero? The Substitute teacher.

Kid zombies + Elijah Wood + wonderfully irreverent dark comedy? Sign. Us. UP.

Come by the Conival stage Thursday at1pm for screening passes or stop by the Lionsgate Booth #4045 on the convention floor, then catch a free screening of the flick at 10pm at the Gaslamp Theater! Easy as pie.
