Sinister is a 2012 supernatural horror film directed by Scott Derrickson, who co-wrote with C. Robert Cargill. It stars Ethan Hawke as a true-crime writer whose discovery of snuff films depicting gruesome murders and strange supernatural elements in his new house puts his family in danger. Juliet Rylance, Fred Thompson, James Ransone, Clare Foley, and Michael Hall D'Addario are featured in supporting roles. Sinister was inspired by a nightmare Cargill had after watching the 2002 film The Ring. Principal photography on Sinister began in Autumn of 2011 on Long Island, New York with a production budget of $3 million. To add to the authenticity of old home movies and snuff films, the Super 8 found footage segments were shot on actual Super 8 cameras and film stock. It premiered at the SXSW festival on March 10, 2012.
