The film hits Netflix on an appropriately ominous day.

The Big Picture While horror comedies have existed since the genre's conception, it feels like in the last decade the sun-genre has been given an extra blood-soaked boost. Films like Happy Death Day, Freaky, and You’re Next have struck a great balance between terror and genuine laughs in the past. Now, Netflix looks to add to the sub-genre’s recent success with the Swedish workplace horror comedy The Conference.

While the trailer doesn't give us much plot to chew on, it does a nice job previewing the horror-filled chaos that’s in store for genre fans. We get a slice of some of the kills that lie ahead with someone being dragged away in a body bag and an Ill-fated worker being clothes lined by a razor wire. However, that’s only half the story with this slasher as the carnage is cut together with a team-building work conference which is anything but stable.

The Work Place is its Own Kind of Horror Most people can’t relate to being stalked by a masked killer, but almost everyone can relate to working at a job they want no part in. Especially when you're forced to go to a conference and take part in team-building exercises. We’ve all heard that we’re “family” at least once in our life. Even though they’re two different plots, the trailer gives off a bloody vibe that’s very reminiscent of You're Next.

Friday the 13th is Almost Here The Conference comes from director Patrik Eklund with a screenplay by Thomas Moldestad and stars Eva Melander, Katia Winter, and Adam Lundren. While you wait for this new mystery workplace killer to arrive on October 13, you can view The Conference’s trailer down below.
